Purpose to make sure players are paying attention at all times
Player in the middle should try to avoid being hit below the waist by a size 5 sponge ball. Players on the outside of the circle must keep the ball inside the circle. Players rotate after 1 minute. A scoring system could be put in place. Eg dodger gets a point every time the ball goes out of the circle. Players on the outside get a point every time the dodger is hit by the ball.
Differentiation; Larger/smaller circle, fewer/more players on the edge of the circle, smaller/larger ball.
