Field divided into a batting square and a large running area

HOW TO PLAY
1

Split into two teams of eleven; one bats while the other spreads across the open running area.

2

A batter strikes the pitched ball with the bat, then runs to a marked line and back before the fielders can react.

3

Fielders catch the ball and try to get a runner out by hitting them directly with a thrown ball.

4

A batter is also out if their hit ball is caught in the air before touching the ground.

5

Score a run each time a batter completes the full course back to the batting square without being hit.

6

Switch batting and fielding roles after three outs, and total each team's runs to find the winner.
