| Dodge disc | a variation of dodgeball using a flying disc in place of the ball or balls |
| Guts | a team sport, similar to murderball |

“As long as lightly all their livelong sessions,
Like a yardful of schoolboys out at recess
Before their plays and games were organized,
They yelling mix tag, hide-and-seek, hopscotch,
And leapfrog in each other’s way all’s well.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“In fact, words are well adapted for description and the arousing of emotion, but for many kinds of precise thought other symbols are much better.”
