Throwing game (6)
I believe the answer is:
quoits
'throwing game' is the definition.
(game in which rings are thrown)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for quoits that I've seen before include "Game with rings, played on deck perhaps" , "Rings-over-post game" , "Game with rings, played on board ship, perhaps" , "Game using rubber rings" .)
