Our Bishop just held his annual life-size foosball game for all the ym and yw.
I love this activity because it involves everyone.
We divide them into 2 teams--mix 'em all up.
Adult leaders are on the side-lines keeping the ball in play and making sure they do not use their hands.
Line up just like a foosball table, alternating direction and team.

They hold onto pvc pipe that varies in size.
The hands are not allowed to let go of the pipe and cannot be used to swat the ball...only feet.
The middle rows are 4 kids across--facing each other.
With this closer contact, may I suggest a beach ball.
The next line-up is 3 across and they are trying to score.
The next row are the defenders, 2 across.
The goalie just has to hold their own pipe but they cannot use it to defend, just feet.
While some were waiting for their turn to play we had an oversized game of twister going.
