Alrighty. This game isn't very complicated at all but it seems to have an ever lasting effect on those who play it. Wall Ball must be played in-doors, a gym is best, but a large youth room can do just as well. There are no teams, there are few rules and they are as follows;1) To start the game somebody must kick the ball into the air. The ball must bounce three times, on the ground, before it becomes an active ball.
2) Players who have the ball can not move from the spot where they are standing, however, they may throw the ball against the wall and then run after the ball and catch it before the ball hits the ground. THEY MUST CATCH THE BALL or they are "out".
3) The person with the ball has to throw the ball at other players (Head hunting is a "out" move). If another player catches the ball, the person that threw the ball is "out". If the ball hit's another person, the person that was hit is "out".
4) PLayers that are hit by the ball must sit where they were hit. They can not move, but, they may reach out from their spot and snag the ball if it comes close enough.If the downed player gets the ball, the player can, and should, throw the ball at the active players. If a downed player catches a ball the person throwing the ball is "out".
That's it. It is an all respects a modified dodge ball game but with a good twist. It's one of those game that never tire and you'll find that your youth group will ask for it week after week. God bless. Props, Bob FBC SALINAS
