Darts
A classic darts board, made of sisal, is fixed with the centre 1.73 metres from the floor, and players throw from a line placed 2.37 metres from the face of the board. The most common game, 501, starts at this score, and each player reduces it to zero, finishing with a double. Electronic boards, with soft tips, count points automatically and are great for families.

Table Football and Pool

Pool comes in French billiards, or carom, which has no pockets and uses three balls, English billiards with eight balls, and American pool.
