Design of carom board

Carrom board is a square piece of plywood in which pieces of carom are placed in each corner. A half-inch wooden border encloses the board, allowing the piece played in the carom and the striker to fall out. The square size of the carom is 76 cm.


It is about 4.5 in diameter and has a smooth upper surface, allowing the pieces to reach the holes made in the corners. In the center of the board is a design vow where all the pieces and queens are decorated. A strip 47 cm long and 3 cm wide is drawn around the board. The striker line is the name given to this strip. On which the player places the striker and makes pieces.

 

Carrom Material

Carrom requires very few materials to play. There is only one striker. There are 9 pieces of two colors, plus a red-colored piece known as the queen. The carom top surface contains powder that must be poured for the carom surface to remain smooth.

 

Carrom Board Guidelines

This game can be played in two ways: single or double (team). Before the game begins, the surface is smoothed by adding powder over the board. Then, in the middle of the board, black and white color pieces are decorated in a circle, and white color pieces are placed in a Y shape.


The red goat, known as the queen, is placed in the center. After that, the game starts and the player who chooses the color just moves to get that color. It has a striker from which the player hits the piece and gets it by throwing it into the hole; one point is awarded for each piece, and there's a queen in it. To achieve this queen, you must first get the queen and then a goat.


If the second piece is not getting after the queen, the queen is returned to the center of the circle. There are 29 points in an innings and three of those points are used to decide which team wins in two innings. In the end, the player with the highest score is declared the winner.

 

Foul Rules for Carrom

1.    It is considered a foul if you strike by crossing the arrow on the side of the strike line.

2.   In such a situation, you must also call a foul if you drop the opposing players chosen piece into the hole.

3. The law of fouls still applies if your striker falls into the striker's hole without touching a piece.

4.    If you make the piece reach the hole before the queen after all the pieces on the board has been taken by the players, you must give a foul.

5. Even if your striker goes out after crossing the wooden border, the player is still subject to the foul rule.

6.   Aside from that, if your striker goes into the hole, you are subject to the foul rule.
