Ball Toss Game and Method of Playing

Abstract

A ball toss game and method of playing. The ball toss game comprises a circular game board and a plurality of container retaining components attached to the game board. The circular game board is segmented into a plurality of substantially equally sized pie shaped sections. A plurality of substantially sized containers are removably positional within each of the plurality of container retaining components. A center container, smaller than the plurality of substantially sized containers is removably positional within a center container retaining component. The method comprises a set of instructions for a game where users attempt to toss ping pong balls into the plurality of substantially sized containers and the center container.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A ball toss game comprising:
 a circular game board comprising a target surface side;   a plurality of container retaining components attached to the target surface side; and   a plurality of containers retainable by the plurality of container retaining components.   
     
     
         2 . The ball toss game of  claim 1 , wherein the target side surface is divided into a plurality of pie shaped sections. 
     
     
         3 . The ball toss game of  claim 1 , wherein the target side surface is divided into eight pie shaped sections. 
     
     
         4 . The ball toss game of  claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of container retaining components comprise a retaining ring. 
     
     
         5 . The ball toss game of  claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of container retaining components comprise a friction element. 
     
     
         6 . The ball toss game of  claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of containers are substantially identical in size. 
     
     
         7 . The ball toss game of  claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of containers is a cup. 
     
     
         8 . The ball toss game of  claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of containers comprise an opening large enough to accept a ping pong ball. 
     
     
         9 . The ball toss game of  claim 1  further comprising a support component attached to a back side of the circular game board. 
     
     
         10 . The ball toss game of  claim 9 , wherein the support component comprises a back side attachment segment and a pair of legs movably attached to the back side attachment segment. 
     
     
         11 . The ball toss game of  claim 1  further comprising a wall mount component attached to a back side of the circular game board. 
     
     
         12 . The ball toss game of  claim 1  further comprising a center container retaining component attached to the target surface side. 
     
     
         13 . The ball toss game of  claim 12  further comprising a center container retainable by the center container retaining component. 
     
     
         14 . A ball toss game comprising:
 a circular game board comprising a target surface side divided into a plurality of pie shaped sections;   a plurality of container retaining components attached to the target surface side;   a plurality of containers retainable by the plurality of container retaining components;   a center container retaining component attached to the target surface side; and   a center container retainable by the center container retaining component.   
     
     
         15 . The ball toss game of  claim 14  further comprising a support component attached to a back side of the circular game board. 
     
     
         16 . The ball toss game of  claim 14  further comprising a wall mount component attached to a back side of the circular game board. 
     
     
         17 . The ball toss game of  claim 14 , wherein each of the plurality of containers are substantially identically sized. 
     
     
         18 . The ball toss game of  claim 17 , wherein the center container is smaller than each of the plurality of containers. 
     
     
         19 . The ball toss game of  claim 14 , wherein the center container retaining component comprises a center retaining ring and a friction portion. 
     
     
         20 . A method of playing a ball toss game comprising:
 providing the ball toss game for a player and an opponent;   attempting to toss a ball into one of an opponent's plurality of containers or a center container of the ball toss game;   removing one of the opponent's plurality of containers from a circular game board if the ball is tossed within;   replacing one of the opponent's plurality of containers if the ball is tossed within one of a player's plurality of containers; and   attempting to toss the ball into the center container after all of the opponent's plurality of containers have been removed from the circular game board.
