Downball (also known as handball) is an Australian variation of four square played throughout Australian schooling institutions. It is played on courts usually consisting of 4–6 squares, in which each player occupies one square at a time. The game is played with a tennis ball, which is served by the player in the "king" or "ace" square. The object of the game is for the player to navigate their way to the "king" square by eliminating opponents. Eliminating opponents can be achieved in the following ways:

The game is played with a tennis ball, which is served by the player in the "king" or "ace" square. The object of the game is for the player to navigate their way to the "king" square by eliminating opponents. Eliminating opponents can be achieved in the following ways:
- A player fails to touch a ball as it bounces through their square
- A player touches the ball twice in their own square
- A player hits the ball and it bounces twice in their own square (This of course include a serve from the "king or "ace")
- A player hits the ball into another square without first bouncing in their own square (This is known colloquially as a "straight" or "full")
- A player hits the ball and it proceeds to roll through their square or another players square. (Naturally, this is known as "rolls" because of the rolling nature of the ball)
- A player hits the ball and it lands out of the boundaries of the court
- Interfering with other players or the ball
- Elimination does not occur if hitting the ball on interior lines as "Liners" (due the fact the ball touches the line) occurs and the two players whose boundary the ball landed on have a ruck and this is the only time a straight is allowed to be hit due to the inability to be able to hit the ball into your own square then another at the ruck
- I was suppose to use these rules some how but i couldt find any place for it which is sad since i put alot of time into trying to find something that i could exspose
