Your accent

[HarvSFC]

It's bum wraps if you lose heads and volls.

Also wall-e, wallball is a classic.

 

[Magic]

It's obviously wall-e. Why would they make a film about it otherwise?

Yep, fly-keepers for me too. I have definitely heard of a ginnel too!

 

[RavenBish]

Headers and Volleys obviously is universal. Punishments were stingers or tunnel. Stingers your generic boot a ball at an arse and tunnel was where everyone who played lined up against the wall/side of the cage and the loser had to run between them and the cage as they kicked him. Once played a huge game with about 15+ people over an entire lunchtime in like year 9 and I lost, went doggy life cos I'm a fucking idiot which meant I had to go there and back - got covered in bruises and broke 2 fingers and had to convince my Mum it was 'part of a game' and not the result of bullying.

 

[D B Disco]

So what about the game where you take it in turns to kick the ball against a wall, do we all have different names for that too? Wall ball for me.

Slam

 

[PatchLatics]

Wembley Doubles always.

Heads and Volleys, red arse and Boomer.Depending on where I lived in Oldham.

 

[roversfan2001]

Wembley singles/doubles?! Are you insane? Keep it simple, one and through, or however many goals needed.

Also, it's Wall-E and Heads and v's.

 

[StagsForLife]

Head and volleys and stingers for the loser, rush goalie and tig.

 

[StagsForLife]

You mean Spot?

Couldn't beat a bit of spot.

 

[StagsForLife]

Wembley singles/doubles i can only assume is one/two man web.

Heads and Volls and Wembley Singles/Doubles as well.

Did anyone used to play Premiership? Which is basically when there is 5 or 6 players, they each pick a team in the Prem, which they only tell to the goalkeeper. So the goalie knows who's got who. If you score a goal, you guess a Prem team, and if it is one of the other players teams, they're out. And you play until there is only one player left, who wins. The goalie is basically the independent adjudicator.

We used to play 40/40 in. The catcher counted by a tree/post to 40. The other players ran away. After the catcher had counted to 40, he turned around and the aim of the game was for the other players to make it back to the post/tree without getting touched by the catcher. Was a hell of a game.

But the greatest game was Man Hunt. Sounds like a homo-erotic orienteering exercise now, but back in the day all the cool kids wanted to be involved. However many players there were, they would be divided into two equal groups. You set the perimeter, which could be as small or big as you wanted it. Normally, it would be the size of an entire village. A time limit was put in place, usually 2 hours. One team was given 15 minutes to head out and hide (normally just ended up hiding in one of your mates gardens. The other team then had to capture one of the hiding team to win. Nothing can beat the adrenaline rush of having the hiders in your sights without them knowing!

Yes! Loved that game. Played a game like 40/40 but it was called something else which I can't remember. Rally or something.

I can't imagine Rage or Jacky's suddenly got a massive influx of new customers on the back of these!

Just caught up with this thread. For the record, it goes something like this:

It - Tig/Tag sound just plain wrong.
Singles/Doubles - No idea where the Wembley or FA prefixes have come from, it always has been and always will be just Singles or Doubles.
Heads and Vols - Short and sweet. Willing to accept Headers and Volleys in this case but no other variations ta.
Wall-E - You take it in turns to kick a ball at a wall, why make the name any more complicated than this?

The very best of mornings to you.

 

[spireite]

We had manhunt. What a game that was!

YES! Manhunt was great fun and surely a game name that is going to be universal on here?

Ah, we called that game Knock Knock Ginger too! Some crazy bastards at uni tried to claim it was called Knock Down Ginger but I wasn't having any of that.

That was a thing Alty yeah.

On a side note, you bizarrely sound JUST like Smat, especially when you do your little laugh [11 secs] at remembering an old anecdote..

He secretly copies everything I do. All that comedy stuff is ripped off from me.

 

[Murphy]

The kicking a ball against the wall game was called One Touch round here.

Although that has dangerous connotations these days so probably best never to use it again.

 

[Stagat]

Knock-a-door-run

Are any of these familiar to anyone:

- Tiggy off ground
- Can't tig your butcher
- Turn around, touch the ground, bags not it
