Instructions

Players need to pass the ball to everyone in their team in turn. The other team will try to intercept the ball.
Intercept means getting something that was being passed to someone else.
When a player catches the ball, they should pass it to someone else in their team. As soon as they’ve passed the ball, they should go over to the person leading the game, and hand in their piece of paper with the number or letter on. This lets the person leading the game know that they’ve caught the ball.
The winning team is the first one to pass the ball to all of their team members. The person leading the game can check, because they’ll have everyone’s numbers.

The rules
Players can’t move when they’re holding the ball. They can turn on the spot. Their team members can move around.
Players can’t touch other players.
Players can’t touch the ball when someone else has hold of it.
Players can’t stand too close to the person with the ball – they need to be at least two arm lengths away.
It’s OK if the ball touches the floor or the wall.
Players can throw, bounce, or roll the ball.
It doesn’t matter which order the people in the team catch the ball.
It’s OK for players to catch the ball more than once each; they just need to try and pass it to someone in their team who hasn’t caught it yet.
Players should show a ‘good sporting attitude’. This means things like speaking kindly to their teammates, being encouraging, not getting cross or frustrated, and sticking to the rules – even if they think the person leading the game isn’t watching.
