Steal the Bacon

Split players into two even groups. Groups occupy opposite baselines and each player is assigned a number that matches the number of an opposing player. Ball is then placed at center court. Coach calls out a number. The two players assigned that number break for the ball. First player to the ball is awarded one point. The player reaching the ball first is now on offense and must attempt to score on opposing teams basket. Player is awarded one point for a shot attempt and one additional point for his/her team if the shot is successful. Coach may blow whistle and call play dead at any time. Players return to their baselines and a new number is called. First team to a predetermined score wins.
