HOW TO PLAY
1

Set the basket or scoring zone on the ground a measured distance from a marked throwing line.

2

Each player takes turns underhand tossing an agreed number of pods, aiming to land them inside the basket.

3

A pod that lands and stays inside scores a point; one that bounces or rolls out scores nothing.

4

After everyone has taken their tosses for the round, move the basket slightly farther away for the next round.

5

Total each player's points across all rounds; the player with the highest score wins.
