Pub Games - Pub Sports

As a subset of pub games, pub sports include traditional pastimes such as darts, billiards, and skittles. Unlike parlour games, or gambling games of chance like cards and dice, all of which are also often played in bars, pubs, and taverns, Pub Sports require exertion, coordination, and dexterity in particular physical skills.

Many of these games owe their origins to older outdoor sports, adapted and transformed over time for indoor play.
