Games - Circle Games - Catch

Catch

All the players stand in a circle facing inwards. One person has a ball and throws it to someone opposite them across the circle. If the person that the ball was thrown to drops the ball they have to kneel on one knee. they then throw the ball to someone else opposite them. Each time someone drops the ball they forfeit another limb. The second time kneeling down on two knees and the third time putting one arm behind their back. If they then drop the ball they effectively become 'out'. If in the mean time they catch the ball the regain the use of the last forfeited limb, if they are successful at catching the ball enough times they return to a standing position. You can also play a variation where people have to call the name out of the person they are throwing the ball to. This helps with learning names - especially if all of you have some sort of name badge as a prompt.
