One Touch, One Bounce 

A game in which a group of people try and keept a football (the spherical type) up in the air. So called because each player is only allowed one touch of the ball until it gets touched by another player. Only one bounce is allowed between touches. If a player touches the ball more than once or lets it bounce more than once, he is Out.

Eventually, one player will be left, and he (or she) is the champion.

A lot of judgement is required as to who is 'out', particularly if it is the 'one bounce' rule that has been broken. Normally the player nearest to the ball is out, unless the ball gets skyed in which case the person who kicked it away is out.

as in football Hands may NOT be used.

One Touch One Bounce 

One Touch One Bounce abrv.( One T One B) is a playground football game where you have a group of people 2 or more in a circle formation. The aim of the game is to keep playing while trying to get people out. You are only allowed one touch to get someone out or play until someone messes up a kick as well as one bounce although having no bounces are allowed.

You can kick the ball in anyway possible but the other players must be able to reach the ball or else they will be out.

The game can be fast paced and you can do volleys or play it to see how many touches everyone in total gets.

The first person out starts the final by throwing the ball in the middle in the air(between two people) . If the ball bounces between two people and hard to tell who was closer it is 50/50 and no one is out.

Head skank are allowed (headering the ball to someone can be done quickly and takes skill to master}

foot skank are not (kicking the ball purposely at someones feet at high speed and they cannot react quick enough]

If the ball hits the kerb and fence and bounces back then play on or if other players could have reached it then you are still in.
