• Everyone has a ball.
• One person is the catcher and stands on the center line, the rest stands on the free throw line and tries to reach the other free throw line without being caught.
• All normal rules apply such as run and second dribble.
• If you are tagged, you also become tagged.

• The teacher sets out three areas of approximately equal size with pawns.
• It is best to use the volleyball lines (see map).
• There are three sections (see map):
• Left: barons square (losers square)
• Middle: princes section (neutral section)
• Right: king of the court (winner section)
• All students stand in the middle section.
• With a signal from the teacher the game starts.
• All pupils have to try to tap/strike the ball of another pupil out of the box.
• If you succeed you move one square to the right.
• If your ball is knocked away you move up one square to the left.
• If you hit/tap someone's ball out of the box on the right you score a point.
• If your ball is knocked out of the winner's box you lose all your points.
• If your ball is knocked out of the left box nothing happens and you stay standing.
• When the teacher gives the final signal the person with the most points is king of the court and he/she has won.

Players gather on the right or left side of the center line.
The first two have a ball.
There are two catchers under the basket.
From the center line you dribble to the basket and make a lay-up.
The catcher catches the ball and passes it to the next player in line.
You do this until you have scored 15 times and then you change sides.
