Of course there's Beer Pong at every good house party! But do you actually know how to play it right? We explain the beer pong rules
to you so that you're ready for your next big Beer Pong Match!

How many people can play Beer Pong?

Two teams play against each other. A team consists of two or more people (sometimes 1vs1, doesn't really matter) 

First things first: Equipment

• 20x beer pong cups (10 pieces per team)
• 2x cups with water
• 2x table tennis balls/ original beer pong balls
• 1x beer pong table
• 2-3x beer per game

What is the goal of beer pong?

The aim is to win by making the opposing team drink a lot of beer. Of course, the fun factor shouldn't be missing either! 😉

How to set up for the game?

The beer pong cups are placed on the playing field. The cups for each team are set up opposite to each other in the form of a pyramid. Each mug is filled with up to a third of beer. Away from the pyramid, you place individual cups with water in order to briefly clean the balls after each throw.

Beer pong rules - the gameplay

Postion yourself at the end of the table. Each team throws twice per round,
each player has one throw. Make sure that your elbow does not move over
the edge of the table! 

If a directly thrown ball lands in the cup, the opposing team must drink it. Note: A direct throw cannot be repelled by the opposing team!

As opposed to a bounce. A bounce is a ball that hits the table top before it hits the opponent's cup. This can be fended off by the opposing team with their hands. If they fail, they have to drink two cups (the team who throws decides which cups) 

If a team has won, the losing team must drink all the cups that are on the field. You can even speed up the game once you hit the Death Cup. This is the opponent's commenced cup. As soon as you hit the Death Cup it's game over and you win!

Our beer pong rules at a glance:

1. Do not lean your elbow over the edge of the table while throwing!
2. If the balls in a cup you must drink it!
3. Throws you bounce on the table count twice, but can be blocked!
4. If you hit an opponent's cup that has been commenced, you have won straight away (Death Cup)!
5. The losing team drinks all the cups that are still on the field!

With these beer pong rules you are perfectly equipped for the next house party!
We wish you good luck and a hell lot of fun! 😉
