Re: Crokinole Tournament <at> work

We play at work during breaks and lunchtime. In order to make things move 
along we restrict the play to six shots per team. So whether you have 2, 3, 
or 4 players the round moves along pretty fast.

This also allows the advantage of playing best 3 out of 5 or higher allowing 
for everyone to get a fair chance. We can get 6 games in a 15 minute break. 
And you'll move the teams around more often allowing for more than 2 games 
each..

Good luck.
