Bump, set, spike! Play this twist of 4-square to practice volleyball skills. All you need is four squares connected in all the same corner, and four players. The goal of the game is to be able to get to the king's square by hitting/serving the ball into another square. If a player delivers a bad serve, or a player comes in contact with the ball more than once when it enters their square, they are out. Then the next player enters the game. Players rotate to the next square as they are successful
