GAME TYPE - Two team game.
WHO'S IT FOR - Group Three. This is a big game, and you need at least seven players per side, plus two ball chasers.
WHAT YOU NEED - A big space (such as a basketball court), sidewalk chalk, a kickable ball, and two goals.
HOW TO PLAY:
- First, make the court. Draw three or four lines on each side of the court and set up a goal at either end.
- After dividing the players into teams, set them on their lines. As in regular foosball, they should alternate. There should be a line of Team A in front of their goals, then a line of Team B facing them. Then Team A, Team B, Team A, and Team B in front of the goal they are protecting. Players can decide how many people they want on each line, but once the decision is made, that's it.
- The big rule of this game is that no one may leave their line. They can move on the line wherever they want, but they may not go around another team member as that would involve leaving the line.
- Start the ball in the middle. The team can kick it to their teammates or to the goal.
- If the ball goes in the goal, the kicking team earns a point, and the other team gets the ball.
- Players may use any part of their body to block, but may only pass with their feet.
- If the ball gets stuck between the lines, the ball chasers (who otherwise stay off the court) may tip the ball in either direction. It will probably be a good idea to assign them to teams, and whoever gets there first can tip it.
- Also, the ball chasers are responsible for getting any balls that go out of bounds. The ball chasers, however, may not try to score.
- The winning team is the one with the most points at the end.
Have fun, but be very strict about the no leaving the lines rule. You can make the lines wide for a little more mobility, but they must stay there.
THIS WORKS ON - Athletic ability (kicking the ball and blocking), following directions (staying on the lines), competition (trying to score points against each other), teamwork (passing to each other).
