Do-To-Ho Table Hockey

Do-To-Ho Table Hockey is completely different from other table hockey games. The play figures are not fastened to rods, but are mobile on the whole playing field. In their bases just like in the puck there is a ball bearing, so they slide like ice skate runners all over the board. Moving a play figure is done via a short, unique knock against the figure with a small stick as in the case for billiard. The play courses take place alternating, there are 'attack courses', with which the puck may be played by a play figure, and 'position courses' (defense courses as well as offside release courses), with which a play figure only may change position without touching the puck. Puck possession changes, if the aggressor misses the puck or hits an opposing play figure. Do-To-Ho was developed in Germany and published in 1994. Until now (2007) there are about 200 exemplars, all handmade. The antecessor of Do-To-Ho was Stahlkugelhockey (=Iron Ball Hockey), developed by the same author in 1980.
