HOW TO PLAY

Playing the Zimm Zamm Game is easy as 1.2.3

*** PLAYING THE GAME:

One player is battling for the Top of the coil .... While the other player is Battling for the BOTTOM of the coil.

Players should stand opposite each other. One takes the paddle and uses it forehand while the other player uses theirs backhand. Backhand gets to START the game. Or simply flip a coin.

1. The game is started by positioning the ring/clip (midway or center) on the coil. Count either 4 rings up or 4 rings down for accuracy.
2. Hit the ball alternately in opposite directions at right angles to the shaft. It will move up or down the coil based upon the direction the ball is hit. (Basically you want the ball to be contained in a small area i.e. not flying all over the place).
3. When the ring/clip has hit the top or bottom of the coil the game/round is won.

(the best 2 out of 3) games/rounds WINS!

THATS IT!!!

*********************************************************************************************

If there are a lot of people waiting in line to play... you can use "winner takes all" the game of "KNOCK-OUT" by using 1 game/round to cycle through the people... Super FUN!

*********************************************************************************************

• 1 game = 1 round
• Typically 3 games/rounds = 1 set
• (Your Choice). After each game, players change places (opposite sides) and then switches between backhand and forehand (taking turns).

ADVANCED RULES can be applied

1. Rule: In case of a tangle... the game is restarted with the ring (at the same position on the coil where the tangle occurred). The player who DID NOT cause the tangle restarts the game 

2. Rule: Try not to hit the ball too high or too low as it will cause some hang-ups or FOULS Some tend to do this to "WIN" the game as it also becomes too far to reach.. the player who did not cause the FOUL restarts the game (at the position where the foul occurred).

*** ADVANCED PLAY:

Players stand at 11:00 position and 1:00 position to the pole.

Player "A" Play using Forward Hand Player "B" Play using Back Hand (same rules apply)

*** INDIVIDUAL PRACTICE:

Put the ring/ clip at the lowest level on the coil. take a forehand or backhand position, then strike the ball. Hit the ball in opposite directions when it returns. Use this time for warmups. It will be paramount to your success! When you are able to control the ball and use the paddle correctly a super athlete is born!
