Stop that Ball
save
In this variation on the aboriginal game gorri, kids get to practice their throwing skills by lobbing balls at a moving target.
What you'll need
- Two small rubber or tennis balls per player
- One larger ball (a beach ball works best)
- Length of rope
How to play
To set it up, divide the group into two teams and give each player two small rubber or tennis balls.
Line up the teams facing one another at least 20 feet apart and use a rope to mark a center line between them.
Next, call out "gool gool" ("going going"), then roll the large ball along the line.
Players then throw their smaller balls at the larger ball, trying to make it stop on the other team's side of the line to win a point.
First team to get to five points wins.
