The disclosed flying ring game includes a flying ring and a rectangular game board having two opposing short ends and two lateral sides, wherein the rectangular game board is disposed at a ten degree angle from a flat reference and defines a circular opening proximal a short end. The flying ring game also comprises a light stick and base adjacent a middle of each of the opposing short ends and the lateral sides. Each light stick is mounted to an interconnecting base and has a rubber ball at its top and a light source adjacent the light stick. The flying ring game also includes a stand alone light stick having a circular base and a rubber ball at its top. A method of playing the disclosed flying ring game with multiple game boards and multiple interconnected light sticks and multiple stand alone light sticks is also included in the disclosure.

Apparatus and rules for playing a boules-style game. The apparatus may include one or more rigid gamepads on which balls can roll, each gamepad having a raised ridge around its periphery defining a base area, and shapes formed in the base area by raised ridges enclosing one or more additional distinct areas. The game may be played in an open area with one or more gamepads placed on the ground. Gameplay includes players rolling the balls onto the gamepad from a distance. Each gamepad may have a post affixed thereto extending vertically from the gamepad. A bonus ball may be balanced atop the post, subject to being dislodged and awarding bonus points. Points are awarded based on a predetermined point value of the base area, and higher predetermined point values of the areas defined by the raised ridges, and the final positions of the balls.

A portable system with bean bags that can be used for playing games or as a towel. The playing surface can be constructed of a flexible, rollable material, such as a fabric used for towels. Games can be played by players tossing the bags toward holes on opposite ends of a playing surface. Nets can be placed in the holes and attached to the playing surface. When a user wants to use the system as a towel rather than a game, the bags can be stored in a storage pouch. The system can include stake holes for placing stakes into the ground to secure the playing surface. The system can further include a carry pouch for storing and transporting the playing surface. The playing surface can easily be rolled up and placed in the carry pouch.

A portable game system including a target pins, a throwing ball having a deflated state and an inflated state, and two platform sections each formed of a base and a planar playing surface. Each platform section having a handle disposed and having positioning indicia disposed thereon. The two platform sections configured to be held in abutting contact via a locking mechanism disposed thereon to hold the platform sections in a collapsed configuration in which the deflated throwing ball and game pins are held within a cavity defined between the platform sections. The game system further having a game play configuration in which the bottom of the first base is spaced apart from the bottom of the second base, the plurality of target pins are positioned on said first game pin positioning indicia and said second game pin positioning indicia, and the throwing ball is in its inflated state.

A catching game for two to six players. Each team stands behind their own goal—the two goals are 12 yards apart. Each team member takes turns trying to throw a flying disc (Frisbee) through the opposite goal (12 yards away). The person throwing must stand behind their own goal—either directly behind it or next to it, but no closer than 12 yards away. Their Opponents also stand behind their own goal and will try to catch the Frisbee if it comes through this goal. Once caught or dropped, this player then tries to throw it back towards the other team's goal where their opponent is also standing behind waiting to try to catch the Frisbee. Players take turns in catching and throwing and can only score points if the Frisbee goes through their opponent's goal and is not caught.

An arrangement for aligning a pair of game boards as used in a tossing game such as cornhole, the arrangement including alignment fiducials located along a center line of each game board and an alignment system that uses a marking line that uses the fiducials to achieve alignment (and perhaps also proper spacing) between the pair of game boards. The marking line of the alignment system may be either a laser-based source or a non-elastic weighted string source.

The present invention relates to a new and inventive combination game combining aspects of ball and/or bowling games. The invention further relates to a game set comprising all elements necessary to perform the game and to a method of playing a combined game.

An apparatus comprises a shaft; an openable and closable canopy; and a plurality of upwardly extending holding chambers on an underside of the canopy. The apparatus is thought to be particularly useful as a golf chipping game, with golf balls being chipped into the holding chambers as target practice.

An apparatus is used with throwable implements. The apparatus includes a base having a central portion and a peripheral edge. A first container is positioned on the central portion of the base. A plurality of second containers is positioned along the peripheral edge of the base and radially about the first container, wherein the plurality of second containers are smaller than the first container, and wherein an upper rim edge of the first container is positioned higher than upper rim edges of the plurality of second containers. The apparatus may be floatable and used primarily in water-based settings.

A ball game device and system includes a ball-rebounding body having a frame within which a resilient surface is suspended. The frame is configured to be immovable for optimizing ball rebound. In this way, the body can be used on virtually any surface and the game played in virtually any environment. Preferably, the frame would have a base and a rebound surface-supporting structure. The resilient rebound surface is continuous and is configured to be variably tilted. The resilient surface is conical such that ball rebound and trajectory is rendered unpredictable, or predictable depending on where the ball strikes the resilient surface and/or a centrally disposed positioned within the rebound surface. In the preferred embodiment, defense boundaries offensive lines and other features are included to provide a wide variety of game formats. Notably the centrally disposed surface provides a spot that the thrower can aim at to maximize ball rebound.
