What You'll Need

8 or more players
A kickball
Chalk

Four Squares

On the blacktop, draw a large square with your chalk. Divide that square into four equal squares.

1. Four players play at a time, with one person in each square of the court.

2. The players take turns bouncing a ball from one square into another.

3. If the ball comes into a player’s square, that person has to get the ball before it bounces twice, and redirect it into one of the other players’ squares without holding it.

When a player doesn’t do this, they are "out", and have to go to the end of the line, and the next person waiting in line takes their place.
