_10 to 30 or more players._

_Playground; gymnasium._

_Hand ball; bean bag._

The players join in a large circle and number by twos or
consecutively. The odd numbers form one team and the even numbers
(alternate players) another. Three Indian clubs are placed at the
points of a small triangle, measuring about twelve inches in the
center of the circle. Each player, in turn, bowls at the clubs with a
hand ball or bean bag. Each club bowled over scores one for the
bowler's team. The team wins which has the highest score when each
player has bowled twice, or more times, as may be agreed on at the
opening of the game. Each player must secure his ball or bag after
bowling and replace the overturned clubs. One ball or bag may be used
and passed around the circle, but the play is quicker if each player
has his own.
