One marbles competition is called the National Marbles Tournament.
In the 1950s and 60s, the game of marbles was popular. The "shooter" marble, which was usually larger and nicer in appearance than the normal marbles played in the game, it was called a "taw."
The game ring taw derives its name from the term "taw," which refers to the act of shooting a marbles-like piece called a "taw." The "ring" aspect comes from the circular area where players aim to shoot their taw and knock other pieces out. The game's origins can be traced back to various cultures, where similar games involving marbles and shooting have been played for centuries.
To play a game of marbles with jokers included in the rules, each player starts with a set number of marbles and a joker marble. The joker marble can be used strategically to gain an advantage during the game. Players take turns shooting their marbles towards a target, trying to knock out their opponent's marbles. The joker marble can be used to hit other marbles or to protect your own marbles from being knocked out. The player who knocks out all of their opponent's marbles first wins the game.
It was in 1980 and Sir William Thomes discovered it and called it the Devils Marbles.

In the marble game played on a wooden board, the objective is to score points by shooting marbles into designated holes or pockets on the board. Players take turns flicking or shooting their marbles with their fingers, aiming to land them in the scoring areas. The rules may vary, but typically players earn points based on where their marbles land on the board. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins.
