Set Up:
A ball is placed between Player 1 and Player 2. Player 1 starts on his feet, Player 2 starts in a push up position. Player 1 comes up to the ball, and as soon as he grabs it, Player 2 can jump up and chase him. Player 1 must get to the opposite end line before being touched. Upon completion, the players switch places. If a large group is playing, lines can rotate to create new matchups.
Progression: Both players are standing at the start.
