HUNGERBALL® is an inclusive multi-sport activity accessible to all students. It enables everyone to participate joyfully, shine, and represent, not just the traditionally athletic ones. This fosters a safe and fun environment that promotes the development of physical, cognitive, and social skills through play, enhancing classroom dynamics and overall student well-being.
If your school has a hall, gym, or covered area, this can be a backup option for weatherproofing your HUNGERBALL® events.
RECOMMENDED HIRE TIME: a class of 25-30 students can be engaged in different games every 30-40 minutes using our ins-and-outs rotation system.

When Hungerball comes to a school for a full day, hundreds of kids get to move, laugh and interact. Research by Auckland University found that they experience a medium- to high-intensity workout, and physical literacy and social skills are being developed. More importantly, these benefits occur mostly unconsciously while the kids are immersed in the 360 degrees of fun, which beats even the best digital games.
Explaining the rules is essential, particularly for groups who have not played before. All players should have shoes on or all shoes off for safety reasons. Shoes should stay on hard surfaces, on grass or sand; shoes off are preferred. Players go through one gate/entry and out through the other to avoid congestion during rotations.
