INSTRUCTIONS

Ages: 8+
Players: 2- 4

Contents:

• 4 Jarts

• 2 Target rings

Objective:

To be the first team to score 21 points by tossing the jarts into or closest to the
target rings.

Setup:

Place rings 30ft. apart (25ft. for beginners) as shown below. Jarts may be
played with either 2 or 4 players divided into 2 teams (Team A and Team B).

Gameplay:

The game consists of rounds. During each round, one player from each team
stands in the “Toss Area” (see diagram above) and alternates tossing their 2
Jarts at the target ring across from them. A player can stand behind or on
either side of the ring, but may never cross in front. Pick a team to go first.
The team that scored the most in the last round tosses first in the next round.

NOTE: A Jart is considered inside
the ring if any part of the tip is
inside the ring.

Throwing:

Hold the Jart by the handle behind the fins. Toss it with an underhand motion
with enough arc so that it will land in or near the ring.

Scoring:

Quick Play Scoring

First team to 21 points wins.

After all 4 Jarts are thrown score as follows:

1 Point - Scored for the Jart closest to the ring (see fig. 1)

the most points scores the difference between the two teams points.

Safe Play Guidelines:

Jarts can be played outside safely. Be aware of your play area. Never throw
Jarts at people or pets, and make sure the play area is clear before you throw.
Do not throw Jarts straight-up, over-hand or sidearm. Never throw broken or
damaged Jarts, discard immediately. Do not throw Jarts on hard or paved
surfaces. Take extra caution on windy days as the Jarts flight path may be
unpredictable. Safe play means fun for everyone!
