Players are split up into two different teams. One team will be standing down on the Tee each holding a bat, whilst the other team is standing out on the field. The batter hits the ball off the tee and proceeds to run back and forth between the wickets scoring as many points as possible.

Once all balls have been put back on the tees, the batting and fielding team switch positions. The team with the most points wins.
