Place two chairs in the center of the hall, next to each other so that the staves can lie across the seats of the chairs.
Set out the rest of the chairs in a circle. One should be marked in some way.
One scout to a chair - the rest line up to one side as "reserves".
Normal soccer rules apply in that you can only kick the ball. Each scout must defend their chair whilst trying to hit the chairs of the others in the ring.
If your chair is hit, or you kick the ball into the chairs and poles in the center - you are out and should move to the end of the reserve queue.
When a scout is out - everyone below the gap should move up towards the marked chair.
The aim is two-fold:
Stay alive
Reach and defend the marked chair.
