Everyone can play

The goals…

• To throw all tokens, one at a time, into the pan while running around the platform

• To throw all the tokens within the shortest possible time

• All this while not cheating

The Target

The Tokens -each participant

has 10

The Platform

Let’s play…• Place the pan in the middle of the

platform• Draw a circle on the ground, around the

platform, 3 metres from the centre of the pan

• Each contestant has 10 tokens• Each contestant competes one at a time• Each contestant uses the hand furthest

away from the pan. If right handed the contestant must run anti-clockwise around the platform. Left handed contestants must run clock-wise around the platform.

But we must have rules…

• Tokens must not be thrown at contestants• Tokens must only be thrown while running• Only one token at a time must be thrown• Contestants must stay outside the 3 metre circle• When all tokens are thrown, any that fall outside

the pan may be retrieved, then the contestant must return outside the circle and commence running, throwing all remaining tokens into the pan

• Running must continue until all tokens are thrown• No tripping other contestants• And no spitting at them

Isn’t that simple?

And the prize?

Scones with jam made in the preserving

pan…

…or would you prefer this prize?
