I used to play wall ball when I was 13 at the boy's club. It was called killer ball then.

No throwing just kicking. I grew up in a city where soccer and rugby where the big highschool sports so our guys could kick serious smoke.

After an hour of that you left the boy's club after closing at 11:00 and played a round of contact frisby until 12:00 and then went home and did your homework.

Kids today are being trained to be soft.

We used to play a game of elimination - sort of like dodge ball with a frisbee - that would likely give these folks heart-attacks today...not to mention tackle football with no pads.

My personal favorite was the bottle-rocket wars. It involved hand-fired bottle-rockets and garbage can lids.
