A game introduced to our schools relatively recently; application as in the previous one. Children divide into two teams, which line up side by side in two rows, as in a relay race, except here the distance between the two rows does not exceed several meters. Players, designated as “ones” in both the “white” and “red” teams, simultaneously (on a given signal) begin play by throwing their twos a ball—white for the first team, red for the second. The twos throw to the threes, the threes to the fours, and so on. Catching the ball is only allowed while standing in the designated spot. Whoever fails to catch it must pick it up and throw it to the next player from the spot where it was retrieved. The team whose ball reaches the last player first wins; that player raises it high and calls out: white! (or red!) b. Throwing-Running Games
