Here are the rules:
Objective
Mini golf courses have 18 marked lanes that are numbered. Players must complete each hole in number order without skipping any hole. According to Play Mini Golf, using their putter, players are required to putt the golf ball from the tee area and straight into the hole. The objective is to make it into each hole on the course in as few shots or strokes as possible. According to Play Mini Golf, every stroke taken counts as a point. If, after six strokes, the ball has not been holed, one more point is added to the total. A player cannot total more than seven points on any one hole. The player with the fewest strokes by the end of the round wins.
Strokes
According to the World Minigolf Sport Federation, before every stroke the ball has to be addressed with the putter held in both hands. Accidental contact with the ball does not count as a stroke, however, as soon as the player begins his backswing, a player is deemed ready. The strokes will count if the putter makes contact with the ball from that point on. If on a player's first shot, the ball does not go past the red or border line, players must shoot again from the tee now on their second shot according to Play Mini Golf. If the shot does go past the border line and then bounces out of play, the player will have a one shot penalty and he will be starting with his third shot at the spot where the ball went out of bounds.
