-Mise en place:

  • Form six teams and provide each team member with their coloured pinnies. their team’s coloured ball, and a specific hula hoop.

  • Spread the six hoops around the perimeter of the playing area—about the size of two-thirds of a volleyball court.

-Instructions:

  • Any player from any team can stand in their team’s hoop and hold their team’s coloured ball.

  • Players inside the hoop attempt to toss the ball at other teams’ players.

  • o If a player is hit in the air (ball cannot bounce off the floor or anything else) that player seats themselves on the floor (or completes jumping jacks) where they were hit.

  • o Seated (or Jumping Jack) players can be freed by catching their team’s ball tossed to them by a teammate inside their team’s hoop.

  • o If a player catches a thrown ball, the thrower must be seated (or do Jumping Jacks) where the ball was caught.

  • o Players inside their hoop cannot be targeted, but can only remain in their hoop for a maximum of 10 seconds after which they must run around their hoop at least four times before re-entering.

  • To get their team’s ball back to their throwing hoop, the ball can be tossed or run back to their team’s hoop.

  • The game is over when all members of one team are seated.
