Line up kids with their backs to each other, there should be several rows across the room. At each end, there's a goalie row facing the rest of the group.

Use anything from Nerf balls to Balloons, to Balloons with a couple of pennies or a little water in them, Ping Pong Balls (although they don't work very well). Most of the time we used Balloons. I like to put a little water in them, so if they break - well, It's more fun :) You throw the balloon into the 'court' and they try to get it past the goalie on the other side.. The players can only hit it with their hands and heads. They may not hold the ball or throw it, they can only hit it. If it goes out of bounds, they should leave it until you get it for them.
I usually set a time limit rather then a score limit, you never really know how many points their going to make. NOTE: It's usually best to set another 'adult' at each side to keep score.
