KNOCKOUT

By. Erik Peterman

 

Equipment:  Two basketballs and two basketball goals.

 

How to Play:  First you line up very player in a straight line starting at the free throw line going back towards half court.  The fist two people in line have a basketball.  The first person in line shots the ball.  If the player makes the shot then they pass the ball to the next person in line who doesn’t have a ball.  If the player misses then they have to keep shooting from anywhere until they make it.  If the first player misses their first shot then the second player can start to shoot.  If the second player makes their ball before the first player does then they are knocked out of the game.  The game ends when only one player is left in the game.

 

Rule Changes:  If you miss your first shot then you have to shot the next shot from where the ball lands.  Another rule variation is that is you miss your first shot then you have to pick up the ball but you cannot dribble.
