Dodgeball
It's the game we used to play in gym class - dip, duck, catch and DODGE! Teams face off one against the other and the team with at least one person left in the game at the end wins. For larger groups, Dodgeball tournaments are also available.

Broomball
This inventive sport is a combination of soccer and floor hockey. Team members use their feet and a broom to score on the other team's goal. Players must maintain their offensive or defensive positions throughout the game.

Lou’s Two-Pitch Hit
Each player receives two pitches from the pitching machine (three pitches maximum with one foul ball). There are four innings in the game and during each inning every team member will have a chance to bat at the plate. The point system is based on the landing location of the batter's hit.

Moonball
Before the game starts, all teams have a five-minute time period to work together and strategize how to score points with the Moonball - a giant five-foot high beach ball. Each team member must hit the Moonball up in the air before any points are scored. Once each team member has had contact with the Moonball, the scoring begins and each consecutive hit is counted as one point. The ball cannot touch the ground in between hits.

Table Tennis
Remember that sport you used to play in your basement growing up (or perhaps you remember that table from your less health-concious days in college)? After brief instruction about the rules of the game and the scoring procedure, participants play against each other on three tables set up on a basketball court. Table tennis is a workout that you don’t always expect. It is a new addition to the Olympics and the second highest participation sport in the world!

Pass, Catch, and End Zone Dance
Each team will select a player to be the quarterback who passes the football to the teammate "receivers". Each QB has 60 seconds to pass the ball into four different zones for varying amounts of points. It will take the entire team's effort to return the football (by way of a lateral pass via the "receivers") back to the QB. The object of this game for the whole team to work together, throw long and score!
