GaGa

You have had to at least heard about GaGa, right? GaGa is a game where you use your hands to hit a ball. Everyone goes in a big pit that is usually shaped like a circle. Everyone stands on the edge and touches it, while someone throws the ball up. Each time it bounces you say “ga, ga, GO!” and the game starts. Your goal is to hit someone’s feet/waist. You have one touch to hit it at their feet. If it bounces off the border or someone else hits it, you can hit once again. Once you get to 5 people, there will be another ball thrown in. Then when it gets down to 3 people, there will be a third ball. These balls are soft (AKA gator balls). Once there are 2 people left you are allowed to hit the ball 3 times. Every time it hits a border your count restarts. You can’t pick up the ball or get on the ground. If someone hits the ball into the air, you can catch it. If you catch it they are out. But if you try to catch it and it bounces in your hand you are out because that is a double touch. You have to have a strong hit because people can use their hands to block hits. If you are the last person in the game, you are the winner!
