Setting & Storing Hoops and Pegs

Random placement of hoops and pegs causes their different shapes and sizes to enlarge the holes in the lawn. These instructions are designed so that each hoop and peg is always set in the same position on the same lawn.

Hoop 3 Lawn 5

Each hoop has its lawn number painted on the end of the crown (cross-member) and each peg has its lawn number painted on its side. Additionally each hoop has its position number painted on a leg to signify its position on the lawn as shown in the lawn layout below e.g. the first hoop (blue) is numbered 1 and rover (red) is hoop 5.

Instructions:

1. Ensure the trolley handles are positioned correctly before moving the trolley.
2. To avoid scraping the hoops against the metal flags, remove all flags first.
3. Place each hoop in the correct location on the lawn, with its position number facing the South Boundary and its lawn number facing the East Boundary.
4. Be sure to store each hoop in its correct position in the trolley.
5. Place the flags into the trolley only after the hoops are stored.
