How To Play Heads ‘n’ Volleys
Heads ‘n’ Volleys is a football game, or soccer to my American readers.
Heads ‘n’ Volleys requires 3 people or more. One goal, which can be mocked up with jackets or trees as goal posts. One football.
One person is elected as goalkeeper, and the rest of the players play with each other. The aim of the game is to score a goal by heading it into the goal or volleying it. A volley is when a player passes the ball through the air to another player, and that player makes contact with the ball before it touches the ground. To make the game a little easier we would include half-volleys whereby the ball may bounce once before contact is made.
This game is more for fun, you can keep goal score but the real aim is to help other players (and for them to help you) make amazing pele-esque goals. Running around, celebrating the goal in star footballer fashion is mandatory!
