A basic circle game made fancy with a ball and special passing moves.
Around Ball
Players: 8 + (an even number)
Ages: 3 +
Place: a space large enough for the players to form two rings
Equipment: 2 balls (beach ball, playground ball, basketball, etc.)
How to play: The players break into two even teams, stand in a circle and choose a captain.
On the signal ("Go!"), the captain throws the ball to the player on the right. Players continue to pass the ball as quickly as possible to the player to the right.
When the ball has gone around once, the captain shouts "One!" and play continues until 5 rounds have been reached.
The team who reaches five first is the winner.
Variation: Players must pass the ball in a specific way (between the legs, behind the back, with a single bounce, etc.)
