Game Description:
Battle zone dodgeball where there is a battle zone!
Objective:
Dodge the balls!
Game Rules:
Divide the playing area into 3 equals parts. Divide children in 2 teams, one on either side. There should be an area in the middle that is open, this is the "battle zone". In the battle zone, children of both teams can enter and throw dodgeballs at one another. If hit, a child must sit down. Children can only throw dodgeballs in the battle zone, they cannot throw in their end. To save a sitting down player, someone from the same team must high five them. They would then receive a safe walk back to their side.

No headshots.
