Cat and mouse

1 player (cat) starts half court in a defensive position. Rest of team (mice) start on one of the baselines (spread out), each with a ball.

At whistle the mice try to dribble to the other baseline without being caught by the cat. The cat (without fouling) steals the ball from the mouse, if the cat does so that mouse now also becomes a cat.

The only rules are the cat can only steal 1 ball per baseline attempt by the mice and the cat must have control of the ball (once stolen), and dribble back to the baseline where the mouse came from (the mouse should not give up on the ball). Also, once mouse crosses the other baseline that mouse is protected so cat cannot steal that ball.

After all of the mice that did not get their ball stolen, stop game and take all of the stolen balls out of play and set your (now) cats and mice up to do it again!!!!
