Play An Outside Game – Ollie, Ollie Over
Weather and local geography permitting, find a
ball and a tall structure such as a house.
Divide the players into even teams and position
the teams on opposite sides of the house.
One team starts with the ball and shouts out,
“Ollie, Ollie over”, and throws the ball over the
roof to the other side.
The team members on the other side, try to
catch the ball as it comes over the roof.
The player who succeeds in catching the ball
throws it back to the first team with the shout,
“Ollie, Ollie over”.
