Players get into a pair and stand with their backs to each other in the middle of the hall with the ball between them. Participants on the left side are the cats and participants on the right are the mice. When the coach shouts cats or mice, the players shouted must grab the ball and dribble to the side line in front of them. If they reach the side-line, they get a point. If not so lucky their partner steals the point. Red players = Cats Blue Players = Mice Orange Sphere = Basketballs Black in front of cat and mice = Safe zone/ Side-line
Keep your head and looking forward to watch where you're going. Use one hand to bounce the ball.
