The new sport of Pop Up Ball was created by James D. Pollitz from Ohio in July, 2024. The sport involves trying to hit a ball into the other persons square. Use your hands or your fist to hit the ball into the other persons square. It has to bounce once before you can hit it back to the other player.

Equipment Required: It can be played on short grass, concrete, or a gym floor. You can use a small rubber kickball. You will need spray paint, or chalk to create the playing surface.

Sport Details

  • One versus one for girls play, two versus two for boys play.
  • The player serves it outside of the square and into the other players square.
  • The ball has to bounce once, then the other team has to hit it back.
  • If the ball bounces twice or lands in the others persons' square without them hitting it back, the player who last hit it gets a point.
  • If it lands on the line, both players get a point.
  • You play up to 24 points.
  • When the ball goes out, the last person who touched it does not receive a point; the other player does.
