1. The checkerboard is composed of 64 squares, alternately light and dark, arranged in a square array of 8 rows and 8 columns.
2. The official checkerboard of the American Checker Federation (ACF), consists of green and buff colors for the dark and light squares.
3. The checkerboard is set up to play so that a green (or black) corner square is to the left of each player. These squares are called the "single corners". The green square to the far right and the green square diagonally upward to the right of it (for each player) are called the "double corners."
4. At the beginning of the game, each player has 12 pieces. The pieces are set up on squares 1 through 12, and squares 21 through 32.
5. Players take turns making a move with their pieces.
