Tennis racquet ideally but it is also possible to play this if the balls are thrown
Bucket or flowerpot to collect each player’s balls

Playing space:

How to Play:
1 person is the leader. The balls are given points values (eg blue = 1, green = 2, red = 3, golden snitch = 10)
The leader hits the balls or throws them, into the open space, taking care not to hit any over a fence! The players chase the balls and grab as many as possible to put into their team’s bucket or pot.
The winning player is the one with the highest points at the end of the session.
Swap leader to give everyone an equal turn.
Variation
Don’t reveal the points for the balls until the end.
