How to play Trench Ball

This game plays as a traditional dodge ball game with a twist.  Split the play area into two sections. Then split the children into two teams.  Place the cones on the end of each teams half of the play space, this area will be the “trench”. Place the dodge balls (I recommend gator balls if you do not already have them, they are amazing) on the center line of the play space.

On go, players race to the center to grab a dodge ball and try to throw it at the other team. If the ball hits a player on the other team, that player must go to the other teams “trench”.  If a player throws a ball and a player on the other team catches it, the thrower then must go to the other teams “trench”

The only way out of the trench is to catch a ball a teammate threw over the heads of the opponents into the trench.

The game is over when one team has successfully sent all of their opponents to the trench.
