Indoor animal Butt Hockey

There were two gradation ceremonies and a graduation party this past Sunday.  Needless to say, we planned for a very small CCSM Sunday night.  We were right to plan accordingly.  The small group of us grabbed some pizza and then Zach Page (one of our leaders) decided he was going to create a new game on the fly.  There were talks of a kick ball game using a ping-pong ball, we considered a baseball style game, but after much deliberation we came up with "Indoor-Animal-Butt-Hockey".

We played the game for a little while and as we played we had to tweak the game a few times to make it right.  I am not going to give all the gory details but listed below is the finished product.

INDOOR-ANIMAL-BUTT-HOCKEY
Set up:
Put a tee (from a tee-ball set) centered at each end of the room.  These tee's are the goals.  using masking-tape create a 6ft box around each tee.  Then place a small nerf ball in the dead center of the room.


Teams:
Split the group into two even teams, and have each team sit beside their goal with their backs against the wall.

The objective of the game:
To take the ball, throw it, and hit other teams goal.  Each goal is worth on point.

The Rules:
1.  Neither offense or defense can touch the inside of the 6ft square around each goal
2.  Once a team scores the other team gets the ball and immediately the ball is back in play.
3.  Your butt must be touching the ground unless you switch to one of the three legal positions.
       #1  The Charging Rhyno:  Hands and knees touching the ground
       #2  The Angry Silver-back:  balled up fist and feet touching the ground
       #3  The Clumsy Otter:  Lay on your side in a straight line and roll.
The 3 legal positions are for defense or moving quickly.  You can only score when your butt is touching the ground.

Clearly this was a very stupid night, but it was alot of fun.  The game was really fun because we created it as it went along.
