Can I enjoy the game on a crokinole board that has smaller (non-international) dimensions ?
Of course. Since the mid-1890s, crokinole boards have been manufactured in many sizes. Millions of fine game boards with non-international standards are in use around the world. During the 20th century and into the 21st, many companies produce a playing surface that is just slightly smaller than 24″ in diameter. Reason: from the standard 4′ x 8′ (122cm x 244cm) plywood or veneer/particle/MDF core sheet, an easy division of 8 equal playing surface circles may be obtained, leaving very little waste. Manufacturers more concerned about economy than strict adherence to international tournament standards frequently produce such game boards. The game may still be fast, enjoyable and satisfying, but if you some day wish to play in international competition, it would be prudent to determine these facts before obtaining a new crokinole board. (Practicing on a slightly wider, narrower, longer or shorter tennis court would not necessarily be to the advantage of players hoping to compete at Wimbled
