I found this game in Great Activities and it was submitted by Sally White of Palm Bay Elementary in Palm Bay, Florida. I've used this game both inside and out. Pirate Ball is na extremely fast-paced running and dodging activity.
Every player has a flag football belt.
The other hula hoop is the jail area. Each group has a treasure chest with a blue, red, yellow, and green ball. The object of the game is to get your group's colored balls from the other three groups by crossing over the restraining lines, grabbing the ball, and taking it back to your home territory with out getting a flag pulled. Each team will try to get all four of its colored balls to win. The ball must be carried across the line and it may not be thrown.
