Four-Back  Games 

2 flight

The purpose is to give players some practice in playing a rover game, in a format that virtually guarantees that every game is won with a peg-out.

 

THIS VERSION OF FOUR-BACK...

* is for single-banked doubles play.  Choose your partner or be assigned one.

* will be preceded at 9:00 AM by a half-hour Q&A on rover play and last-deadness.

* will commence at 9:30 with three periods of play before a 12:30 lunch break

  and continue at 1:30 for as many periods as are needed to complete the blocks

* begins normally at Hoop #1 and proceeds to four-back and to the peg.

* allows a full hour for each round-robin game, so we expect all the games

   to go to the peg, with time left over.

* will use no clock, so there will be plenty of time for players to deliberate

  or to ask the directors questions about rover and last-deadness rules

* has two flights of play divided in the middle, for players handicapped 4 through 12

 

If you're handicapped four or above, we hope you can play.

starting 9 am


using 6 courts.
