"Well, I've found Clare to be a great resource for running a club and even organizing an event (I know he organizes the Owen Sound NCA tournament every year). I'd take his words to heart, and I'll be sure to post when the time comes…"

Howdy Everyone!Well, it has been about 6 months since I've gotten my hands on my first crokinole boards, and I've showed off the game to enough people (who have responded VERY enthusiastically) that…Continue

"Hi Greg,
Apologies if I missed this information; whereabouts were you looking to start this club? I'm from Lansing, MI and your Wolverine hat makes me hopeful that you might be even somewhat local. My friend and I have talked at length about…"
"Well, I'm happy to make the trip down to Ann Arbor some time to talk and play with you, although if your play is half as sharp as your commentary I'll be in some major trouble. If you add me as a friend on here, I can ramble a…"
"Josh,
I'd love to chat with you about the game, perhaps even meet up some time and play a few rounds! I honestly don't know much of anything about the state of crokinole in Michigan, but all crokinole talk is good crokinole talk, eh?…"
"We are starting a monthly night here in Athens, Ohio and having a trophy challenge every other month. About 30 on the list. Growing strong. Might need a venue soon. Good luck. Maybe we can have a club meetup in the future."
"Thanks for some great advice, Nathan. After hearing some thoughts, I do think that we'll try to start off with a casual atmosphere. Let the group function primarily as a social function, and once we can garner enough interest, we can…"

Howdy Everyone!Well, it has been about 6 months since I've gotten my hands on my first crokinole boards, and I've showed off the game to enough people (who have responded VERY enthusiastically) that I am ready for Phase 2 of my "Crokinole takes over Michigan" plan. It's time to start planning a club!I have been daydreaming about starting a crokinole club since about 2 hours after placing my first order. I promptly watched every one of the CrokinoleCentre videos (I would put watching crokinole…See More
"I am in the same boat Josh. My wife uses a push with one fingers and I thought you had to shoot with a braced flick. I put a PICT up on the forum. It appears according to Clare that she is legal. We have a pretty big group down here in Athens, Ohio…"
"Exactly. whatever works best for you, as for me it is my left index finger. Although sometimes even that doesn't work well (: Lately I have been practicing with my right index finger, but that still needs a lot of work !!!"
"I know Bryan Cook deploys this style when shooting open 20s. On tournament quality boards, you don't need a massive amount of power, so I'd say its a matter of finding the method that works best for you. Like Clare said, as…"
"I don;t know of any rule that states the style of 'flick' to be used, as long as it is your finger, except in cues play, where a cue stick is used."
Help! I Need a Swift Kick!
...or should I say, a swift flick?Firstly, thank you for welcoming me into your community. As a brand-spanking-new crokinole player, I've really enjoyed familiarizing myself with the game through channels such as this. I'm attempting to not only learn about the rules of the game, but just as importantly I want to learn the etiquette of the game. Being a veteran of many leagues for other sports, I know that sometimes the unwritten rules are the most important ones. I am really interested in…See More
