Equipment, Setup & Instructions
Equipment

Setup
- Area: 10-yard diameter circle marked with cones
- Group: 3 red outfield players spaced evenly around the circle's circumference, each starting with a ball at their feet
- Equipment: Small cones scattered randomly inside the circle, 3 balls one with each of the 3 starting players
Instructions
