Rules of Beer Pong

Beer Pong Rules

Each team consists of 2 players. The players attempt to toss or bounce ping pong balls into the cups. When a player makes a shot into a cup of the opposing team, a player from that team drinks the contents of the cup and removes it from the table. The game continues in this way, with both players from one team taking a shot, followed by both players from the other team. The team that is able to clear all of the opposing team’s cups first is the winner, with the losing team splitting the contents of the winning team’s remaining cups. If the first ball is made the cup is left on the table. If the second shot is made in the same cup, it results in 3 cups instead of 2.

Any player taking a shot has the option of attempting to toss the ball directly into the opposing team’s cups or bouncing the ball one or more times into the cups. If a player successfully makes a bounced shot, the opposing team has to drink two cups. The non-throwing team can defend cups against a bounced shot by blocking the ball once it hits the table. Tossed balls are not allowed to be interfered with.

Each team can re- rack the cups 2 times per game choosing a form they want the cups to be in.

When one team has all of their cups eliminated, they haven’t lost yet. Each player gets to shoot until they miss. If they both miss and there are still cups remaining on their opponents’ side, they. If the team is able to eliminate all of their opponents’ cups, each team fills up three more cups and resumes play until someone wins.

The winning team continues playing against the next challengers.
