Kickball Basketball
Set-Up
Use a basketball court. The fielders stand inside the court. The kickers stand behind the hoop.
Place a cone on three corners of the basketball court. Use a soft bouncy ball, not a basketball.
How to Play
The pitcher rolls the ball to the kicker, and the kicker kicks the ball.
The kicker has three attempts, like in baseball. They can decide which kick they want to run on.
The kicker has to run around three sides of the basketball court.
To get the kicker out, the outfield team has to get the ball and make a basket before the kicker runs all the way around to the last cone. They can score in any basket.
The next kicker is up after the first kicker is out or scores.
If the outfield students catch the ball in the air from the kicker, they are out.
Variations
The outfield players can only dribble the ball (bounce it).
You can play a time limit for each team, or play 3 out all out.
