Bowitgee
Tennis ball or other small ball
How to play
6 -8 Players pass the bowitgee (tennis ball) among themselves while moving around in the grid area. The group counts the number of passes made in a designated period of time (for example, 60 seconds). The bowitgee must not be handed from player to player (passes must be at least 3 metres). Players can become quite proficient at keeping the bowitgee going. A player often just touches or taps the bowitgee and makes it glance or deflect off to the next player, or catches and throws it quickly.
Variations
Add an extra ball to the playing group. Use an soft/inflated ball with beginners
