_20 to 60 players._

_Playground; gymnasium; schoolroom._

_Hand ball; basket ball._

This is an advanced form of Circle Ball, there being two competing
teams in a circle, with wide spaces between.

The players form in a circle, drop hands, and step backward two paces
to make an interval between players. They number off in twos. The
first Number One is captain for the Ones, and the first Number Two is
captain for the Twos. Each captain has a ball. The game consists in
throwing the ball around the circle, the ball started by captain
Number One going only to the players of that number, and the ball
started by captain Number Two to the players who bear his number.

The party wins whose ball first completes the circle five times. Each
time that the captain receives the ball he calls out a number
corresponding to the number of times the ball has circulated, "One"
for the first time, "Two" for the second, etc. The play should be
rapid. Any player dropping the ball must pick it up and throw in
regular form.

The game may be varied by requiring different methods of throwing and
catching, such as catching with the right hand, left hand, both hands,
etc., if a hand ball be used; or throw from below, above, or pushing
straight from the chest if a basket ball be used.
