Shuffleboard sees players use cues to push weighted discs so that they glide down a narrow court and come to rest within a marked scoring area.

The game dates back to Tudor times when Henry VIII was known to enjoy playing a version.

It has recently seen a resurgence with shuffleboard halls opening up across the country.
