Rah Cha Cha Ruckus Breakaway Human Foosball

Any game with two players on D will just be them sitting on the ledge, catching a ball, punting it out, rinse, repeat. Version 3 or "regular breakaway" positions would be best IMO

Assuming by ledge you mean the small ramp leading to each goal then I agree. Unless both players are tied together with a short enough rope that prevents them from blocking both goals.

If your not going to tie them together then I agree, go with version 3

Tying kids together is asking for trouble.They will be tether free.
I personally think version 2 is much much better.
It's too easy to guard those small goals with two people.

Oooooh this sounds fun!

Anyway, versions 1 and 2 are more team oriented, but version 3 is more competitive. I'd probably go for version 3 because, as Chris said, then it's just players standing in front of the relatively small goals. Depending on skill levels, it'll be nearly impossible to score, pending any limitations to goal guarding.

So, version 3, I believe, will be more exciting. Although I like the 3v3 more than the 2v2, the potential issue of having to defenders in 3v3 makes me a little skeptical about it.

I've been trying to think of a way to make 3v3 work. The best I can come up with is having 4 players in the center, but this may turn into mayhem.

I like the idea for the tying the 2 defenders together also. You could use bungee cords to keep them from getting jolted. If that is not an option I say choice 3 is best, the n scoring on own side, and 2 defenders is a last option. Can mentors play?

Ed is a party pooper. I like Jason's idea. Let's make this a portable version of the inflatable tethered basketball game at the Wrap Party...

Put the human players in a zone in sumo suits and tether them together with bungee cord. Problem solved!
