Set up a very large square made with 4 hula hoops, with a fifth hula hoop in the middle. Begin with one player in each hula hoop. The player in the middle has a dodgeball. All other players are in a line and wait for players to get hit to get in the game. The player in the middle is the thrower and yells “Switch!” All other players have 10 seconds to find a new hula hoop to occupy. The Thrower has 3 steps to take in any direction, before throwing the ball at one of the other players. If the Thrower misses the Runner, then the Thrower returns to the end of the line and all Runners remain in the game. The first player in line becomes the new Thrower. If the Thrower hits a Runner, then the Thrower takes that Runner’s place in any available hula hoop. The Runner returns to the end of the line. The first player in line becomes the new Thrower. After this is successful, add one more Thrower to the center hula hoop. Each Thrower has his/her own dodgeball. No matter what the result of the play, there will be two players “out” and two new Throwers. Keep adding to the number of players allowed in each of the five hula hoops.
