1. All balls start one-half the distance between the starting stake and the first wicket.
2. Play progresses by hitting the ball through wickets 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 in order and then hitting the turning stake. The ball is then played through wickets 8-9-10-11-12-13 and 14. The game is completed by hitting the finishing stake.
3. All balls must be played from where the ball comes to rest.
4. A single point and stroke (additional turn) are won for each wicket and stake that is made in the proper order. Two points and two strokes (two additional turns) are won if a ball is hit through wickets 1 and 2 and/or 6 and 7 with on stroke of the ball.
5. A ball shall be deemed to have not passed through a wicket if a straight edge laid across the wicket touches the ball.
6. A player can hit (roquet) another ball only once per turn.
7. The player's ball that hits (roquet) another ball is "dead." It does not become "alive" and is not ale to hit (roquet) another ball until it goes through a wicket or hits a turning stake in the proper order.
