HOW TO SET UP
Ask Auskickers to line up on one side of the playing area, directly opposite their balls sitting on the far side of the playing area.
The coach is the "Angry Ogre" and must stand in front of the balls with their back to the Auskickers.
STEP 1
Auskickers sneak up behind the Angry Ogre to steal a ball. When the Angry Ogre turns around, Auskickers must freeze! If the Angry Ogre spots someone moving, they must go back to the starting line.
STEP 2
When an Auskicker successfully grabs a ball, they shout "Angry Ogre" ! Auskickers then run to grab a ball and race back to the starting line while Angry Ogre aims to chase and tag as many Auskickers as possible.
STEP 3
If anyone makes it back without being tagged by the Angry Ogre, they win!
Reset the balls, line up the players, and start again.
VARIATION
Place only one ball on the ground! Once a player gets their hands on it, the Auskickers must play keeping-off against the Angry Ogre.
You'll never hear more laughter than when "Angry Ogre" is in full fight, so be sure to practise your "Angry Ogre" impression!
