21 is a basketball game involving free throughs.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • a basketball hoop
  • a basketball
  • 2 to about 5 people
  1. Step 1

    First you select the order in which you will be shooting in.

  2. Step 2

    The first person shoots from the free through line. If he/she scores a basket they get 2 points and then shoot again. However if the miss then they grab the rebound and shoot from where they got the rebound. If you score on the rebound you get 1 point and you turn is over. The next person shoots and the same rules APPLY.

  3. Step 3

    You play to 21 and if you go over 21 points you lose.

Tips & Warnings
  • I suggest you play with 2-5 people because if there is a lot of people then you are waiting a long time for your next turn, and the game is very slow.
  • You can play this same game in soccer: just take penalty kicks, if the goalie saves it then you shoot the rebound. Hockey works with this game too: take a shot.
