ShuffleboardEquipment / GAMEPLAY

Equipment Needed to Play Shuffleboard 

Shuffleboard Table: Shuffleboard tables come in various sizes, typically ranging from 9 to 22 feet in length. Tables can be made of wood, laminate, or other materials. The table has a smooth playing surface with scoring zones at each end.

Shuffleboard Discs: These are the game pieces that players slide down the table. A set typically includes eight discs, with four discs for each player or team.

Table Wax or Sand: To reduce friction and allow the discs to slide smoothly, you'll need to apply a special shuffleboard wax to the table surface. 

Shuffleboard Cue Sticks: Players use cue sticks to push the discs down the table. These sticks are long and often have a concave-shaped head for better control.

Play Shuffleboard at Grimsby Curling Club and have access to all basic equipment needed to play the game. 

Gameplay

The objective is to land your discs in higher-scoring zones while strategically blocking your opponent's discs and knocking them out of play. 

Points are awarded based on the final position of the discs within designated scoring sections, with the highest points typically awarded at the farthest end of the table.

Players must strike a balance between offensive moves to score points and defensive moves to protect their own discs and deny points to the opponent.

The game continues for a number of rounds or until a set point total is reached.
