Teams
A standard game of Putterball is played by two teams
with two players on each team.
Honors
To decide which team takes the first turn, also known as
“honors” in the golf world, it’s simple: ladies first. In the
event there are no ladies present you can use a simple
coin flip, or a classic duel of Rock, Paper, Scissors.
Turns
Teams then take turns trying to make holes, with each
player hitting one putt per turn. Each player gets one
attempt per turn to try to make a putt, and must hit the
ball from a maximum of one foot in front of his/her own
holes. Once a hole is made, place a cover over the hole to
remove it from play. The cover should fit securely so that a
putt can roll over the spot without bouncing or deflecting.
Redemption
Once a team has successfully made every hole, the
opposing team is given a chance at redemption. For
example, Team A is the first team to make all holes. Each
player on Team B will then get one attempt to make as
many holes as possible until he/she misses. If both players
on Team B are unable to make all of the remaining holes,
Team A wins the game. If Team B is able to make all of the
remaining holes, the game will be decided in overtime.
Overtime
The rules of overtime are the same as the original rules
(one putt per player, per turn) but only the back three
cups are uncovered. In the example above, Team A would
have “honors” in overtime, since they were the first team
to make every hole in the original game. Overtime is
played as sudden-death: the first team to make all back
holes wins the game. Sorry, no second chance at
redemption … it’s time to let someone else play.
