I get this this was a learning exercise, but still. Watching it felt like one of those things where everybody gets a participation trophy. You are given a soft bouncy ball for a reason. It is the same ball used in dodgeball. And that is what 4 square is. It is dodgeball with different rules.

[@vicentefigueroatocornal2776]

In my school in Chile we called this game ‘Toi’, but it was somewhat different. We upped it a bit by requiring the players to make the ball bounce exactly once on their square before crossing to any other square, unless the player returned an incoming ball with its head, in which case he could hit it straight into the square of anybody else. Also, moving into other player’s squares was allowed as a means to interfere with their play, but any player on an opponent’s square could only hit the ball with its head. If he was hit anywhere else by the player currently in that square or any other, he or she would leave the game and get into the end of the queue. Serves also required a first bounce into one’s square first. It was very cool, because players would start hitting lower and lower bounces, until the pros would engage in ball-skimming duels. We always played with inflatable balls made with thin plastic, very bouncy, light and safe to hit with an open palm. Also, the lines were wider. I graduated school at 18, now I’m 24 and just finding out this is a thing in the US. It was a game I loved dearly and I always wondered why it wasn’t a fully-fledged sport. I want to play again

[@GrandIens]

In my school we had the same rule of needing it to bounce once in your square when you hit it before it goes to the next square. We called it sockout. We had some ridiculous forms for hitting it.

[@KAM-ew7jh]

We called it boxball in my community, l was the 7th grade champ. Hadn’t played since until I saw three kids with a ball looking bored. I taught them the game was excited and happy playing it. I’m surprised that I never played this with my kids when they were children. What good memories!!

"When someone gets a 'good job, nice try'..." Okay, I get that you're trying to be cheerful and positive. And I love that vibe. But when I was a kid, we'd rip half the skin off our arm trying to keep that ball in bounds. This game gets heated. When a good volley ends in someone getting out, there's no "good job, nice try", it's high energy screaming and spitting in eachothers face. Good times

[@exarkun8250]

You guys are playing a seriously tame version of this game. When I played this in middle school, we used to dribble the ball up in the air (3 dribbles allowed) and do slam dunks, put spin on the ball, shoot it between our legs, double fisted hammers, fakes, etc. Every kid had their own signature move.

My school had different game modes. Like an addition, such as popcorn (bounce the ball in the air as long as you want), icebreaker (forgot what this one was), duel (two players battle it out until one loses), toca/touch (touch the inner and outer corners with your feet after you hit the ball), etc. King decided the add ons before the round. Very fun! There were like 20 add ons but I forgot most of them

[@04279]

Saw a video on that on "HowToDad" and was not aware of the existence of this game. So if I understand it correctly you yourself can also stand behind the lines of your square when you serve the ball? Or do you have to remain inside the square? Thank you for explaining. It is pretty good.

[@ThegreatfishfromMars]

I remember in my primary school we used to play a similar game called 'handball'. It was basically the same except with a high-bounce rubber ball about the size of a tennis ball. The kids, especially the older kids would get vicious with this game and hit the ball extremely hard, low to the ground, or into the corner of the court (or all three). The sore losers would sometimes bounce the ball extremely high.

[@riner9]

many arguments and fights were had in elementary over four square.....competition was fierce

[@JSTRonline2]

Me and my friends played something called Ultimate Foursquare, we would use a playing area the size of a two car driveway witch each slab of concrete being one player's square, instead of a large rubber ball, we used a hollow super ball, about the size of an orange, and used our hands to whack it as hard as we could.

Camilo Esteban Vélez Marín this game changed my life. I was ten but still

[@DidierDubz]

In South Africa we play it a little different. It's usually played with a tennis ball and the ball has to bounce in your court first before it goes to another player's. If you hit it into another court without it bouncing in your court first that " direct " and you are out to join the line. There's King, Queen, Jack , Dunt / Toilet ( depending where you are from 😂 ). If you go out in any position other than King, you go join the line. King gets to move to Dunt if he fouls. King also serves the ball, but if he fouls on his serve he will be considered out and have to move to Dunt. You can play 4 blocks in a square or even 1 vs 1 if you don't have a lot have a lot people. Greatest playground game ever!! 😂🤣

[@maxdragonfire4823]

Kids beat the crap out of each other cause we did “butter scotch” (Hit the edge of the inside of the square...nearly impossible to counter or do.)

[@mad_memez9806]

In our school, you have to bounce into your square and then on others. If u bounce on ur square twice it's double bounce and also means your out. If u didnt bounce in your square before bouncing into others then its a lob and also means your out. If its the line then its a liner means anyone can surf from the line but they cant surf it to their self. The number 4 square is known as ace and the ace can make rules such as the amount of time you get to hold the ball. You are also not allowed to touch the ball twice or with two hands. We played the game for so long we actually did it over, we do things like brutal hard passes which goes very low and quickly but then since most of us are good at this, we actually got the ball (one hand) and reflected back until one of us loses control. We do different tricks over the legs either back or front. We like to play peacefully or else everyone just gets you out after you came in.

[@cameronschindler25]

We double tap it so we hit it high, and slam it into people’s squares. You can also catch the ball midair if it hasn’t hit anybody’s square yet. We do tons of cool tricks to make the game weird

The way my school plays is 4 serves to 2 and spiking is encouraged, you try and get people out, line redo, screaming and kicking the ball also encouraged

[@g2r00ve]

in my school we call it champ so some of the rules is 1. You cant double touch when the ball comes to your box 2. if you get out on the first serve the game starts again and your safe (we just shout "first serve" and that person doesnt get out) 3. You cant continue so if someone gets out like double touching or the ball goes in their box and they dont get it but you play on, your out and that person is safe 4. you cant slam, so if you bounce the ball and it goes over the persons height or you slam and its impossible to get, then your out (you can only do this on the first serve in the middle) 5. if the ball goes on the lines then the game redos and your safe 6. you can only use on hand 7. you can redo if you feel like you got out unfair (tbh i abuse these rules bc i bought the ball and i can do whatever i want but i still keep it fair) 8. if you are no.1 (champ) you serve first 9. you are allowed to hold the ball but only with one hand so you can do some cool tricks if someone tries to get you out 10. dont get into an argument this game can be toxic or really sweaty 11. if it hits your legs the game redos like it hit lines 12. if the ball goes to your box and you miss the persons box you were trying to hit (it goes out) then your out unless it hits lines 13. play the game have fun

In Philadelphia, PA, this game is called King Ball. And when the kids play it (ahem, or adults) it is vicious. the line to get the game can be 10 kids deep. In this version if you hit a line, miss a ball or hit a "bad-ball" you get a letter K-I-N-G. After G your told be a chorus of kids that "You're Out!" And it's nothing worse than getting OUT when the "King" serves you a spiked ball or one with back-spin. These kids take this game serious!

[@Helixtronline]

I read a lot of comments saying this game was more lethal or the players were cruel. In the four square at my school, 1, 2, 3, and 4 are regarded as peasant, knight, queen, and king, respectively. King, may add gameplay modifiers like "Double-taps", "Back-stops", and such. King serves across instead of adjacent. The taps are way more lenient in my games as you can have hand to ball contact for some split-seconds, as long as a "yeet" charge-up isn't too long or someone doesn't grab the ball. In the case that the ball hits the line and neither of the squares connected by it "claims" the ball, a redo is offered. In other words, in my foursquare, you don't get out on line, and also on serves. If knight (person who gets served) fails to make an adequate pass after being served, they may get 2 more tries. Terminology- Double taps- players can legally touch the ball twice before it touches the next persons square. Back-stops- Airball the ball into your square and then hit it into someone else's Yeet- An aggressively longitudinal tap TLDR?- my fouresquare is very different.

In junior high we ended up implementing a rule that ended up being school wide and super popular. You play the game with your feet. This pretty much solved all arguments because it's almost impossible to purposefully chicken feet someone, cherry bomb, or accidentally hit a line. Maybe we had some disputes about lines but if you could cherry bomb, good on you bud, that's skill lol. And chicken feet doesnt matter because well... You're playing with your feet so it actually helps the opponent if you throw the ball towards their feet

Not how we played it. We have to hit in in our square before it hits another one. We use small ball can can use one hand. We have to tap it. If it hits the line we don't count in as anything. If i does, then bounces out, we do whichever square was closest to ball.

I remember this back at school with cheap tennis rackets and a plastic ball, We called it champ cause instead of a server then the person in 1 would serve, making him the "champ" And whoever was sitting out when he got in he would be in 4 and would have to try to get others out until he can become 1. We also had some other rules like 1 couldnt shoot towards 3 when they served and whatnot. Needless to say, when you equip competitive kids with tennis rackets and plastic balls, the result is half the year having black eyes and bruises on their cheeks. Good times.

This ain't how we play at my school, the rules at my school are: Square one must serve at all times to square 3, if the ball hits a inner line(the ones that overlap) we re do the serve/ start over the round, if it hits an outer line(the square on the outside) then the person whose line it hit is out, if the ball goes out and it touched your square and you didn't hit it your out, we don't all rotate if someone gets out only if the person infront of you does. If someone infront of you, you and the person behind you move up a square each and a new player joins, if you hit your own square with the ball your out

Does anyone know the name of the game that uses those painted circles? They are at literally every outdoor court but I can’t find anything online about it
