Game Description:
A fun twist to classic kickball!
Objective:
Try to win points by running to the other teams side without being tagged by the ball!
Game Rules:
Separate children into two teams on either sides of the gym. The leader stands in the middle and they are the pitcher. The pitcher rolls the ball to one child on the running team, that child must kick the ball. Once the ball is kicked that team must try to run to the other side of the gym, each time they touch the other side of the gym it is one point. Meanwhile, the other team, the "outfielders", is trying to throw the kicked ball at the runners, if they hit a player that is known as an "out". Once there are 3 outs you switch sides so that the previous "outfield" team becomes the runners.
Saftey Considerations:
Make sure shoe laces are tied.
