- 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.
- The teacher chooses 2 tickers.
- They have to stay inside their box (inside the 4 pawns) and knock the basketballs away from the runners when they want to cross.
- The runners have to dribble to the other side without losing their basketball.
- If a runner doesn't have his basketball with him, he's out and he automatically becomes a ticker.
- A tip that you can give to the runners is that they should shield the ball with their body.
- This means staying between the ball and the opponent.
- The pupils may only cross again when everyone has been tagged or has reached the other side.
- In the end, as the game progresses, you get more and more tickers and less and less runners.
- The last remaining runner is the winner.
- The players stand around the bucket or on the free throw line and try to score in the basket.
- Vary their position and distance.
- Players dribble from the center line to the free throw line and try to score from there within 5 seconds.
