KanJam

KanJam is a popular lawn game that involves two teams of two players each. The game is played with two cans, called "kets," and a flying disc, similar to a frisbee. The kets are placed 50 feet apart from each other, with each player standing at one ket. One player on a team throws the disc towards the opposing ket, while their teammate stands at that ket attempting to deflect the disc into the ket.

Points are scored based on how the disc interacts with the ket and how the defending teammate redirects it. A direct hit into the ket without any deflection by the teammate scores one point. If the teammate deflects the disc into the ket, it is worth two points. The most points, three, are awarded if the player throwing the disc manages to get it into the ket without their teammate touching it, also known as an "instant deuce." A "guts" shot, where the thrown disc lands directly in the ket without any deflection, scores an automatic win for the throwing team, regardless of the score.

Games are typically played to 21 points. KanJam can be played casually in backyards or parks, and competitive tournaments are also held. The game is known for its interactive nature, requiring both throwing accuracy and defensive teamwork. It is a relatively simple game to learn but offers strategic depth for more experienced players. The durable plastic construction of the kets and discs makes it suitable for outdoor play in various conditions.
