Giant Draughts Hire

Invite your guests to enjoy Giant Draughts, a slower-paced game that provides a relaxing addition to your event. This classic game has been transformed from the familiar small version we all know and into a giant-sized alternative that is just as fun to play as it is to watch others enjoy.

Full details

Draughts, or Checkers as it’s often known, is a game of strategy, tactics and the ability to anticipate your opponent's moves.  Each player uses the giant black and white counters (known as ‘men’) across a chequered board, just like a chessboard.  There are many variations on the rules, but when played, it’s a simple task to capture all of your opponent's counters before they do the same to you. Whatever rule you use, you’ll find the Giant Draughts Hire is a simple yet great fun game that will have your guests lining up to have a go and play the winner of the last game!

Only able to move diagonally forward, it can be a tough journey to the opposite side of the board, where your piece will then become a 'king', allowing for the real thrills to begin, as you are free to move diagonally all over the board. In some versions of the game, kings can become ‘flying kings’ able to move great distances across the board!

Using the huge 3m x 3m mat, the Giant Draughts Hire is an addictive light-hearted game and works just as well at Indoor Events as it does at Outdoor Events.  Young and old alike will find the Giant Draughts Hire a great activity to be enjoyed together, so it’s perfect for events with mixed age groups! When packed away its compact nature allows clients to come to our depot to collect the game for themselves and return it after.
