What you need: You need a basketball hoop, basketballs, and baseball bats.

How to play: Divide the players into equally numbered teams. Give each team a basketball and a baseball bat.

The rules: One player at a time from each team will go to his baseball bat, bend over, put his head on the bat end, and circle it for five times while remaining bent over. Then he will pick up his basketball, dribble to the hoop, shoot a basket, and rebound the ball to bring back to his team. He tags the next player to go. This continues until all players have gone.


How to win: The team who completes the rotation first is the winner.

What else you need to know: The dizzy aspect makes this a great game to preserve with a video camera for laughs afterwards.
