Any number of people can play Pillar-the-Cap. A ball is needed and each member must have a cap. The caps are laid in a line by a wall with the peaks resting against the wall.

He stands at the line when he is about to throw the ball. He gets three trys. If he rolls the ball into a player's cap, that player (picks) picks up the ball, and throws it at the runners. They run when they see the ball has rolled into a cap. If(continues on next page)- Collector
