Setup, Equipment & Instructions
- Smashies have a bat (or racquet), a minimum of 2-3 balls and a batting tee each (the more balls the better).
- Smashies hit the ball through gate targets to score points.
- The number of Smashies hitting is only limited by the equipment (no fielders, everyone bats at the same time, then collects their number of balls).
- If there are a limited number of bats, Smashies can work in pairs with one as the supporter whilst the other hits.
