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.

One marbles competition is called the National Marbles Tournament.
The name "marbles" comes from the historical practice of making toy balls from actual marble stone. Over time, the game evolved and modern marbles are made from various materials like glass, clay, or plastic. The name "marbles" has stuck even though the materials used have changed.
