Here’s a dodgeball game where it’s every man – and woman – for himself. No teams involved.
What’s required is a large wall and a soft springy dodgeball
The object of the game is to be the last man (or woman) standing. The first person in possession of the ball slams the ball against the wall, trying to hit another player with the rebound.
If a player is hit, she must sit down where she is. She can still play by tagging other players with her hand. If a player is tagged by a sitter, the two must switch places.
Sitters can also redeem themselves if they catch a ball on the rebound. Then they can stand up, throw the ball and continue play.
Last person standing wins.
