Wall Ball

How To Play

The aim of the game is to hit the ball against the wall. If the ball hits the wall and then bounces out of play the person next in line loses a life. The server first hits the ball forward and down so that it hits the ground and bounces up to hit the wall.

If it bounces on the ground more than once or if it doesn't bounce on the ground before it hits the wall, it is considered out. After hitting the ball against the wall, the ball bounces back, and the next person would do the same thing.

If the ball bounces more than once before the second player hits it the second person is out. Hitting the ball before it bounces is allowed after the first person hits the ball.

If the ball bounces out of bounds at any time, it is considered out. If it hits the orange line, it is sometimes considered in, sometimes considered out, and sometimes considered a "liney" or "liner" in which the game stops and the person who made the liney serves again.

The goal is to get the person behind you out by hitting it with the right force and in the right direction. There are sometimes rules called "first serves", in which the server doesn't get out until the third time of serving out.

ALTERNATIVE FOR YOUNG PLAYERS - Children catch the ball, then throw it against the floor and wall.
