16 or more players, aged 8 and up, played indoors and out-doors.

Players form two equal teams, each taking one side of the field (figure 2).

Each team should have one medium sized rubber ball- eg: volleyball.

The object of the game is for each team to eliminate the other hitting then below the waist with a ball before it bounces. If a player is hit, he must go to prison behind his opponents side. However, if a player catches a ball before it bounces, the player who threw it must go to his own teams prison.

Players in prison may get a ball and throw it at the backs of their opponents, trying to put them out. If a prisoner puts out an opponent, that prisoner is freed.

The game continues until one "country" is eliminated and all in prison. To make the game more exciting, more than two balls may be used.
