Participants are divided into pairs. Each pair receives a volleyball. They create their own 'net' by holding hands with their right hands (or left hands). The free hand is used to hit the ball over the 'net'. The ball must bounce once on the floor before being hit back. The pair decides how difficult the passes should be.

Eventually, participants can try kicking the ball over the 'net' instead of hitting it with their hands.
