Pinball Soccer Variation

Divide the group into two teams. Have the kids pair up with an opposing player of equal size, the game won’t be far if this isn’t done. Have each pair spread throughout the room and stand back to back and lock their arms together. These are the pinball bumpers for the game. Have two kids from each team go to each end of the room and lay on their sides with their feet about four feet apart. These are the flippers for the game. A point is scored when the ball passes between the flippers and must be rolling on the floor when it does. The bumpers can move during the game but must always remain back to back with elbows locked together. Once the game gets going additional balls can be added to increase play. After each score the ball is thrown back into play.
