Hungry Thieving Hippos

This is a variation of the game “Hungry Hungry Hippos” adapted for lacrosse. Teams of three or more players are formed, each with a base in the corners of the playing area. One or two team members are dedicated to collecting balls from the center, while the others can steal balls from other teams’ bases. An important rule is that the “thieves” cannot steal from the same base twice in a row. The game continues until the balls in the center are gone or until the time designated by the coach ends, and at the end, the balls of each team are counted to determine the winning team.
