CHOKING HAZARD

SINGLES OR DOUBLES PLAY:
Target Toss can be played as doubles or singles. In doubles play, two contestants are
partners against another team of two contestants. Team members stand at opposite
targets and do not rotate. In singles play a contestant competes against another
contestant. Both contestants throw from the same target. After each round, target
tosses are retrieved and thrown back at the opposite target.
RULES:
Every Target Toss match is broken down into innings of play. An inning is complete
when all target tosses are thrown. An inning is never completed until all contestants
toss all of their target tosses.
VALUE OF THE TARGET TOSSES:
A target toss that lands inside the scoring ring scores 3 points. If none of the target
tosses land in the ring, the closest target toss to the target ring scores 1 point. If
another player’s target toss hits yours and moves it, the target tosses will be scored
from the end location of each the target toss.
SCORING:
Only one team can score points in an inning. At the end of an inning, the cancellation
scoring method should be used. For example: If Team A throws one target toss in the
scoring ring for a total of 3 points, and Team B throws both of their tosses into the
scoring ring for a total of 6 points, Team B will get a total of 3 points (6 points minus
Team A’s 3 points) for that round. The total of this round is then added to the total
score from the previous round. A running total should be kept throughout the game.
THROWING TARGET TOSSES DURING PLAY:
In doubles play, teams alternate target tosses until each team has thrown both of their
target tosses. In singles play, players alternate target tosses until each player has
thrown both of their target tosses. Tosses must be thrown underhand.
GETTING STARTED:
To select which players/teams will pitch first, each player, or one player from each
team, pitches a target toss at the target and the player/team that comes closest to the
center of the scoring ring pitches first. In the event both players/teams pitch their
target toss equidistant from the center of the ring, a tie is declared and both
players/teams re-pitch their target tosses until a winner can be declared.
STARTING THE INNING:
The player who scored points in the preceding inning shall pitch first in the next
inning. If neither player/team scored points in the inning, the player/team who
pitched first in the preceding inning shall pitch first in the next inning.
LENGTH OF THE GAME:
Target Toss games can be played two ways. (A) First player/team that reaches 21
points wins. Or (B) a game can be played for 9 innings and the player/team with the
most points at the end of 9 complete innings wins.
