How to Play Washers

How to Play Washers:
Each player throws two washers toward the opposite cup. Subsequent throwing order is based on who scored last with the scorer throwing first. In games with a standard pit, players may stand anywhere inside the pit when throwing. In games without a framed pit area, players are allowed to stand no closer than one normal step in front of the cup.

Points:
Only one player may score per round, with scoring determined by proximity to the cup.

• A washer inside the cup scores 5 points.
• A washer not inside the cup, but closest to the cup, scores 1 point.
• Washers completely outside the pit are ineligible for scoring.
• Scoring is done after all contestants have thrown.

Several ways to win:

• Skunk: - 1 Team scores 11 points before the other team scores.
• Whitewash: One team scores 17 with the opposing team only scores 1 point.
• Full Term: One team scores 21 points before the other team scores 20.
• Advantage: Games that both teams score 20 must keep playing until one team wins by 2 points.
