Double Play bingo paper is an exciting specialty bingo paper that can add excitement to your bingo. Also known as Double Action bingo paper, these bingo cards contain two numbers per square instead of the traditional one number. This generally creates a faster-paced game that your crowd will love.

How is Double Play used?
Double Play is played using traditional bingo patterns except that if either number in a players square is called, the players can dab that square. For example if your square contains “B13″ and “B8″ and “B8″ is called, you can dab your square. In other words, players don’t need to have both numbers called to dab a square and so it gives them twice as many chances to dab.

This double daubing action makes Double Play a fast-paced, exciting bingo game. Usually the time for this bingo paper is earlier in your session and separately from your regular bingo games. Often it’s mixed in with or replaces some early bird games and is called at a very fast pace. Because of the double numbers, Double Play (or Double Action) is typically played as a 1on either in single sheets or as part of a small bingo book.
