How long does a kitty party tambola game last?
A kitty party tambola should fit between the snacks and the main course, so it helps to know how long a game runs. The table shows when each prize is usually won and how many minutes the whole game takes at the default speed of 10 seconds a call.
| Tickets | Typical crowd | Early Five | First full line | Full House | Time at 10 s a call |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12 tickets | a small kitty of 12 members | call 14 (12 to 17) | call 43 (36 to 49) | call 76 (71 to 78) | 13 min |
| 24 tickets | a monthly club of 20 to 25 ladies | call 13 (11 to 15) | call 38 (33 to 42) | call 73 (69 to 76) | 12 min |
| 48 tickets | a big society kitty | call 11 (10 to 13) | call 32 (27 to 37) | call 70 (67 to 73) | 12 min |
| 90 tickets | an annual day or a large party | call 10 (9 to 11) | call 29 (25 to 33) | call 68 (64 to 70) | 11 min |
The numbers come from real simulations of this generator: 300 games for each ticket count, with the typical call number and the middle half of results in brackets. More tickets mean the first prizes arrive sooner, but with 12 to 90 tickets the Full House still comes around call 68 to 76, because someone must complete all fifteen numbers. Many clubs play two games: one before lunch and one after. Use the New tickets button for a completely different set for the second game.
Kitty party games: why tambola is the standard
A kitty party is a regular meeting of a group of friends who pool a fixed amount of money each month, with a different member hosting and receiving the pool in turn. The party itself is a social occasion with food, conversation and games, and tambola is the game that almost every club uses. It needs no teams, it works for any number of guests, and the prizes can be as small or as big as the group likes. For the money side, Wikipedia’s rotating savings and credit association article explains how such pools work.
Kitty party tambola tickets for a club that meets every month
Kitty party tambola tickets can become a monthly tradition. Print a new set each month with the host’s name and the date, and keep the old tickets as a record of the games. The kitty queen theme gives a regal touch to the prizes, and the host can make it a little different each time: a different prize list, a different caller or a different speed.
Ladies kitty games to play after tambola
After tambola, ladies kitty games can move to something more active. Try a round of one minute games, a game of handbag bingo or a fashion round with fashion jewellery bingo. A mix of seated and active games keeps the afternoon lively.
