Activity Description: |

- Play begins with the first person in line shooting the ball from the free throw line, or the three point line.
- As soon as the first shot goes up, the next person in line can shoot. If that person misses they can get their rebound and make a layup.
- If the person behind you makes the shot or layup before before you do, then you are out the game until the next one starts.
- Play continues until there is only one person left.
