Castle / 9 Stones

How to play:

  1. Place 9 stones on top of each other to form a stone “castle”.
  2. The players are divided into 2 teams. Team 1 will play the role of defender of the castle, and team 2 will play the role of attacker of the castle.
  3. 9 steps will be counted from the stone castle and a line will be drawn. From here, team 2 will try to demolish the castle, with the help of the ball.
  4. If, after all the members of team 2 throw the ball, the castle is still standing, the teams will switch roles and team 1 will try to demolish the castle with the ball.
  5. Demolishing the castle is done only with the ball, which can be thrown by hand or foot in the direction of the castle.
  6. After the collapse of the castle, the defending team at that moment will have to recover the ball and will hunt the components of the other team, trying to take them out of the game (like ducks and hunters).
  7. At the same time, the members of the team that managed to demolish the castle will have to rebuild the castle to win the game. They will have to do this without being hit with the ball by the opposing team.
  8.  The defending team – if it manages to remove from the game (to touch with the ball) all the components of the other team, before they rebuild the castle.

    The team that demolished the castle – if it manages to rebuild the stone castle before the other team takes all its components out of the game.

  9. The winning team will start the next game in the forward position.

Rules:

  1. Castle defenders can only defend the castle with the ball. They are not allowed to hold or block those who have to rebuild the castle.
  2. The defenders must let the ball hit the castle.
  3.  A player touched with the ball will leave the game and leave the stone/stones in his hand in the place where he was touched with the ball.
