The Ball
The official ball must be composed of high-quality synthetic leather filled with millet in order to eliminate bounce and to allow easy table landings.
Each ball is a sturdy 12-panel construction for the ideal weight, 130g with a 62mm circumference.
The Playing Area
The playing area is composed of 4 tables, one bench, and 2 level counters.
Each side of the playing area has one circle table- 36 inches diameter- and one 40 inch square table. Each table is a hard surface surrounded by 2-4 chairs. While the heights of the tables may vary from playing area to area, the most common heights are 34 inches for the square tables and 40 inches for circle tables.
The middle bench is 48 inches long, 18 inches wide, and 18 inches tall. The standard materials of the bench are soft vinyl of varying designs.
The hard surface level counters are 40 inches tall. They are made of pine and sit atop a series of lockable compartments, each with its own combination.
