Serve Game Divide your players into two teams. Place a pile of balls (five or more) at two spots close to each net post. One player from each team begins to serve and if they make the serve they run and take a ball from the pile and give it to the next player on their team. If they miss the serve they go back to the basket and grab a ball and give it to the next player. The first team to remove all the balls from their pile at the net wins. Variation: If a player misses the last ball that team must add three new balls to the pile. If a team misses two serves in a row they add three new balls to the pile.
