Do whatever, and have fun! That’s what it’s all about.

Play with different types of balls. Depending on the ground surface you can use soccer balls of different sizes, Dick’s Sporting Goods Nautical Mini Volleyball, the Nike Spike Mini basketball, 7-inch playground kickball, regular mini volleyballs, or spikeballs. You can even use different non-ball objects such as dog frisbees, Ultimate Frisbees, and bean-bags if you don’t mind getting hit with one. They can hurt.

Decide on your team size, and how many players are Insiders vs. Outsiders.

Try out different circle radii (radiuses) on the ground. Maybe only use the No-Zone Line so everyone is an “Insider”.

Finally, agree upon the goal-point values: how many points for each hoop, from different distances, and how they are shot. You can even decide to leave out any of the hoops.

Please write and send pics and videos if you’d like to share creative ways of playing you think others might also enjoy. {NOTE: If you’re under 18 and want your media posted here, please send parental consent with contact info to verify.}
