We play this game crossways in our gym. You divide the course in half and make boxes for the kids to stand in, in the form of a foosball table. If you are not familiar with a foosball table the middle two lines face one another and are on opposing teams. Behind them are the opponents line, reducing the number in the line to less than are in the middle lines, and they are facing the goal they are kicking toward. Behind them are their opponents facing the other goal trying to block their kicks. Do this down till you have one goalie. A box is drawn on the wall that the ball must be kicked into to score a point. It is best if you use a light dime store type ball so it doesn't hurt as much if (when) you get hit by the ball. It also sails wildly when kicked. It is best if shoes are taken off and play in sock feet to protect every ones shins. Have a referee roll the ball between the two opposing middle lines. Then the kicking begins, no arms are allowed to hit or catch the ball. Players must stay in their assigned boxes and only move side to side to kick or block the ball. If the ball is kicked out of bounds or to a dead spot that no one can get to without getting out of their box, the referee rolls the ball down the middle again to restart the point. After each point everyone rotates one spot giving everyone a chance to play at every position. Our kids love to play this game and lots of energy is expelled. Plenty of drink is needed. Adjust rules as needed.
