Here is a fun and fast-paced game of shooting baskets. This game uses two basketballs and a line of players at the free-throw line. Player 1 shoots at the basket and tries to make a basket before player 2 makes a basket. If player 1 makes a basket before player 2, then player 1 give the basketball to player 3. The goal here is that the front player needs to score a basket before the player behind her/him does so. If the front player does not score a basket before the player behind, then he is out. Note: I like the variation that was added where the players are not out, but they score a letter like in the game of horse. That way, everyone stays active.
