  • FIG. 6 is a block diagram of a process for playing a game in accordance with the present invention.
  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF AN EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENT
  • The present invention is for a tossing game and especially to a lightweight, portable tossing game apparatus and method which can be played at the beach or on a water surface or in someone's yard.
  • Referring to the drawings FIGS. 1 through 6 and especially to FIG. 1, a tossing game is illustrated being played by an individual 10 on a beach 11. The player 10 is tossing a projectile 12, such as a bean bag, at a series of targets 13, 14, and 15, shown as squares confining different interior open areas, but can be of any shape desired without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. The player 10 is standing behind a foul line 16. The foul line may be drawn in the sand or earth or may a piece of any material. The targets 13, 14 and 15 may be of any shape. The illustrated square targets are of different sizes. The sides of the small target may be, for instance, 18 inches in length with the next larger targets sides being of 24 inches on each side and the third target having a length of 30 inches. The different size targets are used to indicate different scores that the projectile 12 lands in. The targets may also be triangular or circular or any shape desired and may be made of any material desired such as plastic sections which can be disassembled for storage and transportation and reassembled as desired. The projectile 12 can also be of any shape as desired but the game may include a floatable projectile when the game is played on a water surface. A plurality of projectiles 12 of different colors or in groups of different colors are used to distinguish between player projectiles after the player has tossed a projectile.
  • As seen in FIG. 2, the legs or sections of a disassembled target is shown. Two of the legs 17 can be seen having openings in each end while two of the legs 20 can be seen having wedging or insert end portions 21 on each end thereof, each shaped to be press fitted into an end opening or hole 18 in the end of a leg 17. This allows the legs or target sections 17 and 20 to be assembled as shown in FIG. 3. The legs 17 and 20 are preferred to be hollow with sealed end portions to make them lightweight and buoyant. They may also be made of a floatation material such as foamed polymer, such as polystyrene, as desired. The insert portions 21 can also be threaded if desired for a threaded connection with openings 18 that are also threaded if desired.
  • FIG. 3 shows a typical target 13 having two legs 17 having two legs 20 attached thereto to make the assembled target 13. The inserts 21 can be seen protruding through the openings 13 in the legs 17. In operation three different sized targets are assembled for playing the game and disassembled for storage and transporting. When the targets are disassembled, the entire game can be transported in a small backpack or container.
  • Normally the game will come with six projectiles 12 of two different colors, three targets 13, 14 and 15 of varying sizes, along with a carrying case and an instruction sheet. The targets are placed in a straight or parallel line and at a distance from the foul line depending on the age of the players. Several foul lines can be drawn for different age players. Points are scored only if the projectile stays within a target area inside the target's legs with each size target having a different number of points. After each player has had his turn, the scores are tallied and the highest score being for the projectile that lands on the smallest target.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates another projectile 33 for use with the present tossing game which projectile may be buoyant so that it will float in the water 26 of FIG. 5 when tossed but which may also be used on a hard surface. It has an inflatable surround 34 or may be made of a buoyant foamed polymer as desired. It should be clear however that the projectile can be of any type desired, such as for instance a Nerf ball or the like, without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
  • FIG. 5 illustrates another embodiment of the present invention in which a set of targets 23, 24 and 25 are each buoyant and are floated on water 26, such as in a swimming pool 27. This embodiment may have a foul line 28 on the side of the pool 27 or the foul line may use the side of the pool 30 as the foul line. The targets 23, 24, and 25 are floating targets as previously described in connection with FIGS. 2 and 3. A person 10 is illustrated tossing a projectile at the targets.
  • FIG. 6 is a flow diagram of the process of the present tossing game. To play the game requires the selection (40) of a target kit having sets of target sections of different sizes. The selected target sections are assembled (41) into targets such as shown in FIG. 3. The assembled targets are then displayed (42) as shown in FIGS. 1 or 5. A foul line is then marked off (43) in a predetermined position which may be by drawing a line in the sand or positioning a physical object such as laying down a strip of material in a line. Each player is assigned (44) one or more colored projectiles with each player having different colored projectiles from each other player so as to identify a player's projectile relative to the targets. Each player then takes turns tossing (45) a projectile at the displayed targets. After the players have completed their turn or turns, the scores are tallied (46) depending on the players projectiles landing in which targets. Generally landing on the smallest target will have the largest assigned score while landing on the largest target will have the lowest score. Missing all targets will have either no score or a relative lower score depending on the proximity to one of the targets.
  • It should be clear at this time that a method and apparatus for a compact toss game which can be easily stored and transported for ready setup has been provided. However the present invention is not to be considered limited to the forms shown which are to be considered illustrative rather than restrictive.
