DESCRIPTION

Organisation: Groups are organised as illustrated. The coach or teacher acts as the server initially and serves the ball under arm one bounce to player 1 of the batting team who is standing at the crease. Player 1 hits the ball and runs to first base or more depending on where the ball has been hit. To complete a run a batter has to successfully reach fourth base; they then join the back of the line if successful. Batters can be caught out bowled or run out; once out they must join the back of the line. Fielders must attempt to retrieve the ball and throw it to the nearest base fielder or to a base fielder where there is a chance of a run out. An innings can be a timed innings or until all are out. The team with the most runs are deemed winners.
