Choosing the Right Playfield

Last updated on

There are a lot of important components of a shuffleboard table, but perhaps no single component is as important to the game as the playing surface. This means that when you look at different shuffleboard tables, you should look for what they have to say about the playfield construction. Having a nice frame and design are both desirable, but they will not impact the game as much as the playfield. When shopping for a shuffleboard table, substance beats style every time, although they are not mutually exclusive.

Shuffleboard tournament idea’s

Last updated on

We love the fact that people get together and share great times by organizing shuffleboard tournaments.  We thought we would share some of the best idea’s we have heard about so that others can liven up their tournaments and increase the turnout.

Separate the pro’s from the regular Joe’s:

Its more fun when the competition is even.  For this reason we always find the best tournaments let teams choose their level of competition.  Granted there may be a sand bagger in the group that wants to crush the competition in the amateur section.  If they win then from that point forward they should be entered into the pro competition.  This also allows beginner’s to get their feet wet and play a bit longer.  They may even have a lucky night and get a W.  The other thing that you can do is have better prizes for the pro series to give the better players incentive to play in the more competitive group.

How to Play Table Shuffleboard the Right Way

Last updated on

This week, we are going back to the basics of table shuffleboard. For new readers, I wanted to take this chance to go over how to actually play a game. Like most games, your objective is to score more points than your opponent(s).

Games are usually played until 15, but can be played until 21 if you want a longer game. You can score by either knocking the opponent’s puck off the shuffleboard table, or by sliding your puck into a score zone of higher value. That is the general way the game is played.
