Balón Prisionero (ENG)

What does it consist of? How do you play?

It is a popular game that is usually practiced in Physical Education classes in which there is a division in two of the field for two teams matched in number. (In the case of our class we decided to make teams of 8 because in total we were 32.

A draw is decided who will draw first, after this the teams must necessarily choose a player to place him behind the enemy field, we must clarify that this can no longer be "revived" during the game, and once this is decided on game will begin.

Scheme of the game

This sport is played eliminating the opposing team by a ball (neither too hard to not hurt, nor very large) without it does not bounce on the ground, does not hit the opponent's head or without being caught the first time .            
(To see the detailed rules click here).

The eliminated players (without counting the one that was already at the beginning) will be able to eliminate the opponents with the balls that fall "inside their field". These can be revived if a non-eliminated teammate catches a ball first.

If a player grabs the first the ball may choose between reviving a partner or eliminate the opponent. If the ball thrown by a "not eliminated" hits the head of another "not eliminated", it will be excluded.

The team that eliminates all the players of the rival team will win

How will we organize the game?

As a game track we have decided to choose the one of volleyball and forming 4 groups of 8 people chosen at random. These groups will play a tournament at the best of 3 points (points which are won by winning a game) in the semifinals and the best of two in the final and to find out the 3rd place.

Result?

Due to some small problems of time we had to readjust the scoring system, instead of implementing the system that I mentioned in this post, the winning team would be the one that got the point for eliminating the team.

For the next one, take more than one field to be able to carry out the game.
