Game Instructions:
Play like 4 Square if you know that game, but with 9 squares.
Tape or draw a 3 x 3 grid of squares on hard ground, with each square about 2 meters wide.
Number each square moving around the outside squares with number 9 in the middle.
Start with 1 person standing in each of the 9 squares.
The “King” in square #9 serves the ball by bouncing it on the ground in their square and gently underhand hitting it into another person’s square.
The person that gets the ball in their square then underhand hits it into another person’s square.
If the ball bounces more than once in your square or you are not able to hit the ball into another person’s square, you are out and everyone in lower numbered squares advances up in number, with someone who was waiting in line taking square #1.
If a player hits the ball overhand, they are out.
If the ball bounces on an outside line it is fair.
If the ball bounces evenly on a line between players, the player in the square that the ball toward must hit the ball.
