The kids will yell asteroids, and upon which the coach will throw the balls up in the air off his/her strings â the balls will naturally fly off in different directions. 3. It will then be a race for all the kids to get a ball each. One child will miss out. 4. That child will miss out on the next turn, and will get to call out Asteroids. They will replace the next person who gets out. Just before finishing this tennis game, the coach can do a last-player-standing competition where there will be a winner declared. Each time a new round begins, the coach will have to take one more ball off his/her racquet.
