Rope ring (5)

I believe the answer is:

quoit

(Other definitions for quoit that I've seen before include "Rubber ring thrown to encircle peg in game" , "Ring used in shipboard game" , "Flat ring" , "Cast rings" , "Quito (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Wall Street Journal.
