Abstract

A game kit and method of use. The game kit includes one or more board units and one or more tokens, such as one or more coins or balls. Each board unit includes a planar board affixed to a plurality of legs that extend from the planar board. The planar board includes one or more apertures therethrough, each aperture sized to receive a token therethrough. Each aperture may include a netting thereunder to catch the token after it passes through the aperture, to facilitate retrieval of the token after use. The method of use includes throwing the token toward a board unit of the one or more board units in an attempt to place the token through the one or more apertures for the assignment of points that accumulate to form a score of a team or an individual.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
We claim: 
     
         1 ) A kit, comprising:
 one or more board units, wherein each board unit of the one or more board units comprises a planar board having a plurality of apertures therethrough, wherein the plurality of apertures comprises a smaller aperture and one or more larger apertures;   one or more tokens, wherein each token is sized to fit through each aperture of the plurality of apertures;   wherein each planar board is affixed to a plurality of legs that extends from the planar board.   
     
     
         2 ) The kit of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more tokens includes one or more tokens selected from a group consisting of: a coin, a ball, and a combination thereof. 
     
     
         3 ) The kit of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of apertures consists of the smaller aperture and three larger apertures. 
     
     
         4 ) The kit of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more larger apertures are arranged around a perimeter of the smaller aperture on the planar board. 
     
     
         5 ) The kit of  claim 4 , wherein a selection of apertures of the plurality of apertures includes a netting thereunder configured to catch the one or more tokens after the one or more tokens passes through the selection of apertures. 
     
     
         6 ) The kit of  claim 5 , wherein the selection of apertures of the plurality of apertures comprises three larger apertures; wherein the netting of each of the three larger apertures is secured to a bottom surface of the planar board. 
     
     
         7 ) The kit of  claim 6 , wherein the smaller aperture does not include the netting thereunder. 
     
     
         8 ) The kit of  claim 1 , wherein each leg of the plurality of legs is pivotally affixed to a perimeter edge about a bottom surface of the planar board. 
     
     
         9 ) The kit of  claim 8 , wherein each leg of the plurality of legs is configured to pivot to a compact configuration for storage or transport of the kit, and to an extended configuration for support of the planar board during use of the kit. 
     
     
         10 ) The kit of  claim 9 , wherein each leg of the plurality of legs is independently pivotable about a fastener that pivotally affixes the leg to the perimeter edge about the bottom surface of the planar board. 
     
     
         11 ) A kit, comprising:
 one or more board units, wherein each board unit of the one or more board units comprises a planar board having a plurality of apertures therethrough, wherein the plurality of apertures comprises a smaller aperture and one or more larger apertures;   wherein each planar board is affixed to a plurality of legs that extends from the planar board;   wherein the one or more larger apertures are arranged around a perimeter of the smaller aperture on the planar board.   
     
     
         12 ) The kit of  claim 11 , wherein the one or more larger apertures includes a netting thereunder configured to catch a token that passes therethrough; wherein the smaller aperture does not include the netting thereunder. 
     
     
         13 ) The kit of  claim 11 , wherein each leg of the plurality of legs is configured to pivot to a compact configuration, wherein the leg is flush with a bottom surface of the planar board; wherein each leg of the plurality of legs is configured to pivot to an extended configuration, wherein the leg is not flush with the bottom surface of the planar board. 
     
     
         14 ) The kit of  claim 13 , wherein the compact configuration decreases a profile of the board unit for storage or transport of the kit, and wherein the extended configuration increases the profile of the board unit for use of the kit. 
     
     
         15 ) The kit of  claim 14 , wherein the extended configuration produces an angle between each leg and the bottom surface of the planar board that is about ninety degrees; wherein the extended configuration produces an angle between the bottom surface of the planar board and a support surface thereunder that is about thirty five degrees.
