Board for Standard (international) checkers.

Game rules:

Winning and drawing

A player wins the game when the opponent no longer has any valid moves. This can be either because all of the player’s pieces have been captured, or because they are all blocked and thus have no more squares available.
If the same position appears on the board for the third time, with the same side to move, the game is considered drawn by threefold repetition.
The game is drawn when both players make 25 consecutive king moves without capturing. When one player has only a king left, and the other player three pieces including at least one king (three kings, two kings and a man, or one king and two men), the game is drawn after both players made 16 moves.
When one player has only a king left, and the other player two pieces or less including at least one king (one king, two kings, or one king and a man), the game is drawn after both players made 5 moves.
