Four Square is an engaging playground game that can be enjoyed with three friends on a square court divided into four sections. This guide introduces players to the game, including essential information about the court layout, playing equipment, and fundamental rules. A typical court consists of four labeled squares, with players taking turns to bounce and hit a rubber playground ball into one another's squares. Players must adhere to specific rules, including allowing the ball to bounce only once in their square and refraining from holding the ball. The game encourages fairness, respectful interactions, and physical activity, making it a popular choice among schoolchildren across the United States.
