Quoits Garden Game: A garden Game for the family
The outdoor game of Quoits can be traced back to 1388 in England although there is evidence, however, that similar versions of the game of were played in ancient Greece and Rome. Edward III banned the game in England during the 1360's as he believed it to be foolish, but the game was revived in Northern England and Wales during the early 19th Century.
Quoits is a game of skill and judgment suitable for all ages that requires players to throw rope hoops so that they land on the board and points are gained depending on which section of the board they land in.
