Keep Away

  • Type: Coming in game
  • Equipment: A rubber ball

If there is a large number of players, they should form a circle. For a small group, have the players, spread out and form a square or five-sided figure. One player is chosen to be "it" and he stands in the center.

The other players bounce or throw the ball around or across the circle or square. They try to keep the ball away from "it" while he, of course, tries to get his hands on it. When "it" catches the ball, he changes places with the last player who threw it and the game continues.
