Deck shuffle is your cue to test your technique off the table.
Bringing the challenge to the floor, you’ll use poles to slide discs across the court, aiming to land them clearly within the scoring zone opposite. Sounds simple enough, right? But it’s not all plain sailing—slide your disc too far and you’ll end up in the penalty zone with an immediate 10 point loss!
Play it safe and stay within the lines to cruise to victory, or rock the boat by knocking your opponents discs into the penalty zone. However you play, just remember—slow is smooth, and smooth is fast.

Don’t be intimidated by the large, floor-based game! Deck shuffle is played very similarly to shuffleboard, just on a larger scale. The goal of deck shuffle is to slide your discs down the court and land them in the scoring zones at the other end, simple right? Follow our how to play deck shuffle rules and you’ll be master of the floor in no time…
Deck shuffle is best played in teams of two – singles or doubles.
Decide who is kicking off the game first, from this point you slide the discs alternately from each side.
You must slide your disc from behind the line – take your shot from over the line and that shot is null and void!
Each team takes turns to slide their discs until all discs have been played.
You are aiming for the scoring zones within the triangle at the opposite end from where you are sliding from.
The WHOLE of the disc must be INSIDE the scoring zone lines to count! If it’s touching a line then it’s a 0 score.
Be wary of the back of the triangle – touch within that area, line and all, and it’s -10 points!
Add up your scores at the end of the round and input into the scoring tablet.
The next round starts from the end you have just slid your discs to.
