The chanachim form a circle standing up with legs apart and with their feet touching their neighbours feet. A ball (a light, soft sponge ball is ideal) is thrown into the circle and the chanichim use their hands to try and knock the ball between the legs of the other players. Each time the ball passes through someones legs, the person gets a handicap. First, the person loses a hand, then has the use of 2 hands but has to stand backwards, then has one hand backwards and is then out.
