The game of Skittles has been in existence in various forms in Europe since the 14th Century and is the forerunner to present day 'bowling'.

Normally played with two or more players that take turns throwing a ball at six wooden skittles in an attempt to knock as many over as possible.

The Jaques family have been manufacturing high quality games and sport equipment since 1795, passing from one generation to the next. They have the reputation for craftsmanship of the highest quality and ingenuity of entertaining games.
