Three Stoney
4+ Players
You will need:
Three flat stones of slightly different sizes.
Tennis ball.
First of all you split into two teams of equal size and place the three stones on top of each other in the street.
Decide which team goes first.
The first team stands about 12' away from the stones and rolls the tennis ball at the stones to try and knock them over.
Everyone takes a turn to knock down the stones.
If all the team misses then they stand behind the stones whilst the other team takes a turn the to hit the stones.
The first team to hit the stone has to run and hide whilst the other team counts to ten and then chases them.
If one of the hiding team is caught then they bacome a prisoner.
If any of the hiding team makes it back to rebuild the stones they win the game.

| Played a game very similar to this as a lad, the only differences being that we used seven flat stones (building a small pyramind type structure) and the way people from the team who managed to knock the structure down were caught was by throwing a tennis ball to tag them (risky but loads of fun). Otherwise the same rules. The game is called Pittoo (Kashmiri, origin i think). |
