There is a great game played with a ball called "Popcorn." We learned
it from a Hawaiian pre-school teacher. It is a little like dodge ball
and bombardment but there are no teams in popcorn. We are looking for
the Rules of the game!

Here's a game called "Popcorn," but it doesn't sound similar to
Dodgeball:

"(Popcorn)  A player throws the ball up in the air, claps and catches
it.  As this is completed the number increases making it more
difficult.  This continues until the ball is dropped or Player 1 stops
the game."

This site describes a variant of Dodgeball called "Scatterball" that
involves no teams. Does this sound similar to your "Popcorn" game?

the scatterball answer may be it. I have to ask my son. He is the expert player.
