Hacky-Sack
Hacky-sack is a sport played with a Sipa, a Rice Bag, or a Footbag. There are several ways
to play, including:
- Hacky-Sack: This is played with any number of players. You simple try to
get everybody in the circle to get the Sipa in order to get a hack, double-hack, etc.
- Lives: In this varient, each player takes turns hacky-sacking the Sipa. The first player kicks it
once, the second twice, the third three times, etc. If a player is unable to accomplish the required number,
then the next player gets a chance. If he/she accomplishes the number, the other player looses a life. If not, then it goes to the next player. If he/she makes it, the other two players loose a life. If no one can get the number after going to every player, then the original player starts at that number again. If you loose three lives, you're out. The last player in wins.
- Pelt: In this game, each player is allowed to hack the ball alone. If they can kick the ball three or five times (decided prior to play), then he/she gets to catch the ball, then throw it at one of the players (whom are allowed to run).
- Footbag: Footbag is basically Volleyball with a footbag.

Rules
Each player may use any part of his or her body except his/her hands. Pointwise, any stalls (stopping the ball completely) are worth two points (for use with Lives and Pelt), and anything else worth one. If the Sipa ever touches the ground, it is out of play.
