Ultimate frisbee is a non-contact sport played in a team using a disc (frisbee). The rules are pretty simple. The game starts of with each team lining up at their end zone and the defense throws the frisbee to the offense. The person that is holding the frisbee is not allowed to move, if they do move then the frisbee goes to the opposing team. They have a total of ten seconds to pass it to their teammate.

If the other team tries to block it, but they fail to catch it, it goes to the same team that threw it. Every time the offense completes a pass in the…
Once again, there's a runner on first base when you receive the ground ball. You come up with the ball and throw it to the second baseman who is on second base waiting to receive the ball with his foot on the bag. Once he has received the ball he makes his throw to the first baseman who is stretched out with his foot on the bag trying to make the play before the runner touches first. This is the ¨5-4-3¨…

Flickerball was created by Davidson College in 1951 for an alternative for football. Flickerball is very similar to American football. It is usually played in gym classes. The offensive game rules are that players are divided into two equal teams. One team taking the ball at their 10 yard line starts the game. Only passing and catching may advance the football. Passes may be overhand, underhand, or sidearm and in any direction but must go at least 5 years. Hand-offs are illegal. Players most stop once they have caught the ball and past it within 5 seconds. If the ball touches the ground or floor the ball goes to the other team. There are no downs as the ball is continuously in play. It is a touch down when a player catches a pass in the end zone. All touchdowns are worth 1 point. The game is played best when the offensive team spreads out and keeps moving using the entire field.…

Baseball is a game of skill that requires two teams consisting of nine players; a field, and equipment, such as gloves, bats and baseballs. To start, you will need nine willing players per team to participate. One team plays defence in the field , while the other plays offense at bat. The pitcher throws the baseball to the catcher with a offensive hitter in the batter's box trying to hit the pitched ball. Next, the umpire is the official that calls balls and strikes. A strike is a pitch thrown by the pitcher that crosses the plane of home plate between the hitters knees and letters, which is chest height. If it is within this zone, it’s a strike. If the pitch is not in this zone, it is a ball. If the hitter does not hit the pitch into the playing field before receiving three strikes, he is out.…
There are many rules in kickball. First of all, the participants are divided into two teams, the kicking team and the pitching team. The number of players on the field can vary, but most commonly there are a minimum of seven players on the field and a maximum of 11. Depending on the league you are playing in, there may or may not be a referee enforcing the rules. World Adult Kickball Association rules say games should consist of five innings and should last no less than 45 minutes and no more than 90 minutes. The pitching team fields players in a manner similar to baseball. This side consists of a pitcher and catcher; first, second and third baseman; and three outfielders. If an eighth player is not available, teams can play without a catcher. The pitcher rolls the ball toward the kicker; the ball must be rolling on the ground as it passes over home plate. Once a ball is in play, members of the pitching team try to get the kicker out either by tagging him with the ball or, while holding the ball, touching the base the player is headed for. When the pitching team earns three outs, the inning is over and the teams trade places.…
Baseball is a bat and ball sport played between two teams of nine players each. The object of baseball is to score runs by hitting a ball thrown, with a bat and touching a series of four markers called bases arranged at the corners of a ninety-foot square, or what they would call a diamond. Unlike the majority of sports, baseball playing fields can vary significantly, within certain guidelines, in size and shape of the field. Players on one team take turns hitting while the other team tries to stop them from scoring runs by getting hitters out in any of several ways. You can make an out by making a play at the bases, striking out the batter, or by catching a fly ball. The teams switch between batting and fielding whenever the team that is fielding gets three outs. One turn at bat for each team constitutes an inning. There are nine innings that make up a professional game. The team with the most runs at the end of the game is the winning…
A ball, a bat, and four bases on a field. The elements of the game that became baseball have been around for hundreds of years, also know as an English game called rounders.[#1 Appositive] Americans had been playing another ball game with bases called “town ball” since the Revolutionary War. By the 1840s, sportsmen in several Northeastern cities were gathering regularly to play several variations of what they called baseball. In 1845, Alexander Cartwright and Daniel Adams, were both leaders of the Knickerbocker Base Ball Club, and developed the first set of rules for the game. Though the rules changed rapidly over the next few years and continued to evolve into the 1900s, they were close to what baseball is today, to mark the ‘birth’ of baseball. From humble beginnings, the game has grown from a sport played by men on weekends to a sport played by women, and children of all ages in more than 100 countries.…

Table tennis is a sport in which two or four players hit a lightweight ball back and forth using table tennis rackets. The game takes place on a hard table divided by a net. Except for the initial serve, players must allow a ball played toward them only one bounce on their side of the table and must return it so that it bounces on the opposite side. Points are scored when a player fails to return the ball within the rules. Play is fast and demands quick reactions. Spinning the ball alters its trajectory and limits an opponent's options, giving the hitter a great advantage. When doing so the hitter has a good chance of scoring if the spin is successful.…
