Kick Ball - Striking and Fielding

Kick Ball is a dynamic game that combines elements of traditional striking and fielding sports, tailored to engage participants in a fun and active way. The objective of the game is to accumulate runs by skillfully kicking a ball and then running between designated cones. To play, only minimal equipment is required: three cones to mark the playing area and a football to serve as the ball that will be kicked.

The game is structured to include one batter and six fielders, ensuring that multiple players can be involved at once. The batter stands ready to kick the ball as it is bowled underarm by a fielder. Upon successfully kicking the ball into the field of play, the batter then runs to a cone, either to their left or right, and returns to the middle to complete a run. The fielders work together to retrieve the ball and return it to the bowler for the next delivery. Each batter is given five opportunities to kick and score before roles are swapped, allowing all players to experience both batting and fielding positions. This simple yet engaging game is an excellent way to encourage teamwork, coordination, and physical activity.
