Players line up facing a wall, one of them throwing a tennis ball or similar-sized ball against it. If the thrower fails to catch the ball on its return,^[2] they must run and attempt to touch the wall. If another player can grab the ball and "hit them in the butt" with it before they reach the wall, the runner is out of the game until the next round.
