KEG TOSSING RULES

OFFICIAL RULES:
Keg Tossing


Ligonier Highland Games will host it's annual Keg Tossing competition on Sunday, September 15.  Meet at the Main Field Tent at 2:45 pm to check in or register. Here are the basic rules:

  1. All competitors must be present and signed-in by 3:00 pm      
  2. Every competitor will have two chances to toss the sixth barrel slim keg (approximately 17 pounds) for distance.  Longest throw counts.
  3. Distance measured from throwing boundary to first impact.
  4. All competitors must stay behind the marked-off throwing zone. Crossing the boundary is a foul and thrower gets a zero for that toss.
  5. Competitors may toss keg in any manner they wish, one hand or two, underhand, overhand, spinning or moving approach – all permitted.
