2 Carrom board is an indoor fun filled entertaining game
Carrom board is an indoor fun filled entertaining game. It creates a competitive atmosphere in a fun filled and entertaining manner. It brings the family together on weekend afternoons after lunch and helps everyone in the family not only to enjoy their weekends but also to relax and have fun in a peaceful manner. Although, it is not just meant for Sunday afternoon and it can be played during any part of the day during weekends. It is a very simple game with minimum amount of carrom accessories and barely imposes any injuries during the course of the game unlike other sporting activities. It is believed to have originated on the suburbs of India although now it has been widely welcomed and adopted by several other countries all across the world. It is now recognized as official sports and tournaments between nations are conducted throughout the year.

3 The rules of the game is pretty simple and as follows;
The game can be played as doubles as well as singles encounter. The former involves two members of the same side sitting across each other against two other players. The team which wins the toss starts off first and they start with white coins. With the help of a striker usually bigger than the carrom coins, each player takes turns and strikes it in attempt to pocket the coins into one of the four holes. Center queen which is red in color is worth more and in order to be claimed needs to be followed with another coin. Pocketing the striker accidentally means the side loses one of their scored coins along with a turn, which need to be placed back into the game. If the striker goes into the hole along with a coin, two coins are placed back into the game and the player doesn’t lose his turn. Sinking the team’s last coin beforehand while the queen is still in the game means the side loses the game. Eventually the goal is to score all of their coins along with the queen before the opponents does it in order to win the game.

4 Accessories for the game are pretty simple and limited, basically it involves carrom board, carrom coins and striker without which it is absolutely impossible to play the sport. The coins are either made out of plastic or out of wood. In a game there are about 9 white coins and 9 black coins along with one center red coin comprising of 19 coins. A side either plays for white coins or black coins. However for other conveniences, you have carrom board replacement mesh, carrom board cover, carrom board stand, carrom board counter, and carrom board powder. You can opt for the board stand if you want to sit on chairs and play the game. Carrom board powder is a must as it allows the coins to drift through smoothly and keeps the surface of the board smooth for longer periods. This is very important for maintaining the board and the board sustains its longevity.
