Footgolf is played the same way as golf, using a football instead of a golf ball, where the ball is kicked (rather than hit with a club) towards a 21-inch cup / hole. The player who plays the 18 holes with the fewest shots wins. The first shot is played from the tee box avoiding obstacles to reach the hole. Like traditional golf, reading the course, a clever approach and accurate 'putting' are just as important as a powerful tee shot.
