A bingo sheet is a sheet of paper with a grid of squares. The squares are numbered 1-60 and the player must choose a square number, called their “bingo”, from 1-60.
Bingo numbers are printed on balls and when the player hits one of these balls off the board, they mark off that square on their bingo sheet. If the player has hit all their balls off the board, they have won the game. .
If the player has not hit any of their balls off the board, they can draw new balls from the supply (usually 36) and continue playing. If at any point during the game all of the player’s balls have been drawn, they lose.
The object of the game is to fill in as many squares as possible on your bingo sheet by hitting balls off of the board. The more squares you fill in, the more points you score.
Bingo games usually last around 20 minutes and players usually receive prizes for winning games.
