How to play
Players form a line at the free-throw line with two basketballs at the front. The first two players shoot; each one's mission is simply to score before the person behind them does. If the player behind you scores first, you're knocked out. After any make, pass the ball back to the next in line and rejoin the line. Rebounds can be put back from anywhere. The line shrinks with every elimination until a final one-on-one shootout decides the champion.

Sack Race
Mark a start and a finish line, and give every racer a burlap sack or a sturdy pillowcase. Players step both feet into their sack, hold the top at their waist, and hop for the finish line when the race starts. Falling over is part of the fun — racers must stand back up inside their sack before continuing. First across the line wins. For big groups, run it as a relay: each finisher hands the sack to the next teammate.
