HOW TO PLAY

Start here.

YOU’LL NEEDA hacky sack—or a rolled pair of socks
▶Watch beginner footbag techniqueKickFire ↗
  1. 1Stand in a loose circle. The first server drops the sack onto a foot and pops it upward. Solo players do the same.
  2. 2Use a foot, lower leg, or knee to keep the sack off the ground. Count one point per touch. With other players, pass after each touch. Solo players keep touching it themselves.
  3. 3A drop, hand touch, or sack leaving the playing area ends the rally. With other players, two touches in a row by the same person also ends it. Record the shared score.
  4. 4Everyone serves twice. Keep the group’s best rally and try to beat it next game. Solo players try ten rallies and keep their best score.

REMIX THE RULES

Complete twists.

Around the worldA rally earns one circuit only after every player touches the sack once before anyone touches it again. Continue in any order for the next circuit, but a repeated player or a drop resets the circuit count to zero. The group wins by beating its best completed-circuit record.
