What is the game marbles?

Marbles is a game that uses marbles along with a circle. The goal is to knock your opponents marbles out of a created circle by flicking your marbles towards theirs. Whoever has all of their marbles outside the circle first loses. ********************** Actually, there are many, many variations of the game. Some are only played in certain countries or regions of countries and not all involve knocking out another marble. A popular marble game in France has you flicking your marble around a track like it was a race. In part of Tennessee/Kentucky area they play Roley Hole which has teams of 2 shooting their marble back and forth in their playing Field going into 3 different holes. Very complex and lots of strategy with that one. There is an old game called potsie where you shot your marble into a single hole. These versions don't use any target marbles - only a shooter. Then there are many versions that do use a target marble. In the US, the National Marbles Tournament plays ringer and the US Marbles Championship plays a modified version of ringer but both involve knocking target marbles out of a ten foot diameter circle. In England, during the British and World Marbles Championship, 49 target marbles are clumped together on a six foot diameter, 4 inch raised ring lightly covered in sand.
