i tried searching for this but got nothing so if its out there already sorry.

outside of freestyle, Net, Golf, & just plain kicking circles, there are a bunch of other games out there; feel free to keep on adding.

Kill: (2+ players; the more the better)
stand in circle (or across from other player) and serve to a person. the person who recived the the serve must do a set number of kicks (say 2) after doing 2 kicks they must kick the ball at anyone else in the circle. the other players can not move their feet but can bend to avoid the ball. if hit you are out.... proceed till one person is left

21: (2+ players)
serving goes counter-clockwise. the player counts their cicks untill they miss and then serves to the next in line. this continues untill someone gets 21 kicks total.
you can add the number of kicks depending on skill level of the players (ie. 21kicks to win -> 50 kicks to win)

Ex. turn 1: i kick 10 turn 2: i kick 3
bob kicks 8 bob kicks 13
bob wins cuz he totaled 21 before me

Don't forget 4-square or 2-square!

[Waylon Lew (EmoWasabi)]

Numbers is intense. No self-serving of course. First person served kicks once, second kicks two times, third kicks thrice, etc. Reach to the highest # you can before you drop!

Horse. The same version a basketball, do a shot, they must make it from there, only instead of shots its tricks. You do an around the world, they must do it, every trick you do, they have to do it, if they cant they get an H. Then an O. The first person to spell horse loses. After you do a trick, and they do it, or even miss it, it is their turn to do a trick you must try.

i cant belive i forgot 4 square. does anyone know about some sort of passing game? i remember hearing about it but i dont know any rules or game play.

We call numbers around the world. Not sure who came up with that...

How about the one add game. Do a crazy one add trick and the next person has to copy it. Can get pretty crazy.

[Kyle Hewitt (SyLaTAC)]

Eli has that game on (or had it on the old) Flipsider

[Antoine Whitney (sen)]

Ya, that's where I got it from. Although I don't recall seeing it on the new version.

[Benjamin Benulis (ironcladben)]

Just as fun with 2-adds. Try hitting spinning knee delay!

[Mitch Goss (Snaeblooc)]

Me and my friends play a differant version of kill. You serve to anyone in the circle and as soon as the hack has been hit 3 times (by anyone) anyone can hit the ball out of mid air and if you get hit you're out. Plus, you can dodge any way you feel like it (including running like a little panzy! ) Just for an example, say I serve to Bill, he hits it twice then it flies over to Jim. Jim hits it once (at this point everyone is coverying their crotch and running) and swats it right into Billy's face. Billy is out

Another fun, but very hard game is Orbit. The hack is passed arround the entire circle using only toe delays. If someone misses it, that person sets it on their toe and nudges it to the next in line. I've managed to do it several times around because there were only two people in the "circle"(me and my friend are really the only people in our grade that can pull of toe stalls like that)

I want to try 4 square. Horse sounds fun too.

I was bored a few years back when it struck me. A mix between borden ball, soccer, rugby and football all with a footbag. 2 teams of three (or more.) The association to football is that there is 1 quarter back, two recievers (or more), qb has to drag that bag onto his foot (hike), set it and has to pass it within 4 hits (5 inc. set.) Recievers have to put it in play by kicking it up before it hits the ground, or by stalling it and has 4 more hits or stalls until they have to pass it or the play is deemed over (like a tackle). Also this needs to be done within 5 seconds. You can score by getting over an end zone line or by kicking the footbag through a football post thingy, you know, like the letter H. The team with the bag has four attempts to score and the defence has to wait 3 seconds before they try to rush the qb and either make him drop it by kicking the bag out of the air or until the qb has surpassed 5 hits. Also, defenders are to try and get in the way of the recievers. If the defender intercepts the ball, the play continues like they had the bag the whole time, but one must remember that the interception counts as a touch. Can be either timed halfs/quarters/periods or up to a certain score. Post back and let me know what you think of this game, I think I will call it Footsball.

This game two friends and I play is played on a faily small court. The dimensions are about 13 feet long and 7 feet wide. It is a variation of monkey in the middle where the two players on the outsides of the court are passing it back and forth to the other player, avoiding contact with the middle player. The court is set up into 3 parts, a four foot x seven foot playing area for a kicker, a five foot x seven foot area for the monkey, and another four foot x seven foot area for the other kicker. There is marking on the floor outlining the different parts and no player may cross them while playing, unless you need to go for it.

There are 2 different kinds of points, contact points--points against the monkey-- and there are kicker points, which are given to the kickers. If either of the kickers obtain 3 kicker points, they are sent to be the monkey. Kicker points are gained when:
-They drop a footbag on the ground.
-They do not play a "playable kick" from the other player. (Playable is determined by the kicker and the monkey).
-Moving over the bounderies into the middle of the court.

After a kicker gains a point, he gives a playable throw to the other kicker, who then must try to get it back to him. Whenever a kicker gains a point, he is given the footbag to throw to the other kicker. If a pass is made that hits the monkey, but the monkey does not play it, the initial throw is given to the last kicker who played the footbag. Ex: Kicker A makes a successful pass to kicker B, then Kicker B hits the monkey and then the footbag falls to the ground. Kicker A is given the footbag to throw to Kicker B, because kicker B was the last kicker to play it.

Contant points are gained by the monkey for the following reasons:
-They make contact with a player that interferes with his playing.
-They cross the boundery into the kickers area.

When ever a point is gained by any of the three players, the footbag is dead and must be thrown to one of the kickers. If contact is made on Kicker A, kicker A can call it and have the footbag rethrown to him by Kicker B and the monkey gains a contact point. If the monkey obtains three(3) contact points, all kicker points and contact points are cleared.

For a monkey to become a kicker one of the following must happen:
-The monkey steals the footbag from the kicker while in play and plays it to himself catching it with is hand above his waist.
-The monkey intercepts a pass and plays it up to himself and catches it above his waist.
-One of the Kickers gains Three kicker points.

If the Kicker is playing the footbag when the monkey steals it, a player can hit the footbag with his hand so that the monkey can not get it. Doing this he must take one(1) kicker point. If the footbag is stolen from the kicker and kicker hits the monkey after the monkey makes contact with the footbag, no contact point can be called. If the monkey intercepts a pass or steals a footbag, he may stall it instead of playing it up to himself.

Hope you try it out because it can be really face paced and alot of fun. I'm not sure if I added everything, I might edit to clarify certain things.

[Patrick Murphy (gooshoeman)]

One of the main rules is when you get the initial throw as a kicker, you must hit the footbag at least once to prevent just hitting it straight back the the person.

Sorry I forgot to add that!
