10 or more players, aged 5 and up, played indoors and outdoors.

The game of rounders is very common throughout Great Britain, and is generally known as the British version of baseball, with some important differences. The British game Tip-cat, a variation of Kichka of the Ukraine, is believed to be the ancient ancestor to rounders.

In rounders, players form two equal teams, one batting and the other catching. One player hits at a time, simply tossing a tennis-sized ball up and hitting it with a bat. While the catchers are fielding the ball, the hitter runs around the bases, of which there may be as many as the teams like. To put the hitter out, he must be tagged or hit with the ball itself, but the hitter is safe if he stays put on any base.

Every player on the hitting team hits before teams switch positions, with the number of hitters making it home determining that rounds score.

The game may continue indefinitely, or towards a pre-determined number of rounds.
