Stand on the same Side as your partner


Initial possession is determined by: shoot-off, coin flip, rock-paper-scissors, etc.


Each player on a team throws once, trying to throw the ball into the other team’s buckets.


If a ball goes into a bucket or the bucket tips and spills, then the bucket is removed.


If both players make different buckets in the same turn they get the balls back to shoot again.


Both balls in the same bucket is NOT game over.


Teams are allowed one re-rack per game.


As soon as one team eliminates all of the other team’s buckets, they WIN!!!


The losing team gets rebuttals as follows: one throw per player, one throw each with bring backs, each player throws until they miss.


If the losing team makes all of the buckets, the game goes into overtime. If not, they lose and the game is over.


Overtime rules:
Three (3) buckets per side in triangular formation are used in overtime and the team that is winning gets to throw first.
Overtime game play is the same as normal game play and the objective is to eliminate all of the other team’s buckets.

Bucket ball Rules.
