Au cours d'une manche, chacun des quatre joueurs de chacune des deux équipes joue deux pierres. Une fois les seize pierres jouées, on accorde un point à chaque pierre placée plus près du cercle central que celle d'un adversaire. Il est ainsi possible que les huit pierres d'une équipe soient mieux placées que celles de l'autre équipe. 2, record 1, French, - manche%20de%20huit%20points
