2) A ball is made of cloth wound round with cotton thread and the players form two sides in lines about twelve paces apart. One boy throws the ball to the opposing side. The catcher hurls it back, trying to hit a player on the first side, who dodge for all they are worth. If he succeeds he scores a point against them. If he misses, the ball is tossed back, to be caught by the first side and hurled at side no.2. |
