Pig-Pin Tournament Rules
Setup 10 pins on each end of the lane on the designated markings. Each player will take turns tossing the football at the opponents pins. The first player to knock all the opponents pins down, wins the round. Each match will be the best of 5 (first player to win 3 rounds).
In the event that both players knock down all the pins on the same turn, then setup a single pin at the front position of the lanes and play a single pin sudden death. First person to knock the pin down unless both players knock down the pin on the same turn then repeat with another sudden death toss.
Basic Play Protocols: After each throw, if pins were knocked down they should be cleared off the field of play by removing the pins and placing them behind the Standing pins. In the event that a stray ball from another lane enters the field of play and knocks the pins you may replace the pins to the previous state. Only balls making forward motion count. This means that if a player over throws and hits the wall and it bounces back and hits pins, those pins do not count and need to be restored to the lane where they were prior to the turn.
Tournament Types - tournament formats are based on the number of players and time allotted for the event.
Double Elimination – Players are matched-up in a bracket format and any player that loses two games is eliminated. The winning players continue to play until a winner is crowned. There are many creative ways to organize double elimination games. Here’s the most typical Example: If you have twelve competitors, the competitors play each other in the first round – Player 1 vs. Player 2, Player 3 vs. Player 4, and so on. The winners go to the winner’s column and the loser to the loser’s column. At the end of the first round you will have six winners and six losers. In the second round, reward the winning players by matching-up the winning players against the losing players – Winning Player 1 vs. Losing Player 1, Winning Player 2 vs. Losing Player 2, and so on. Continue to play and eliminate players with two losses. In the event that you have an odd number of competitors playing, reward the player with highest winning point margin with a bye.
Round Robin – A round robin tournament is when all players play each other once and the player with the most wins ultimately wins the tournament. So, if you have 6 competitors each competitor will play 5 Matches. Round Robin will be used when there are 4-6 or fewer competitors.
