Recess Cleveland Rules – Ultimate Frisbee
Ultimate Frisbee actually began right here in Ohio, developed by college students in the 1960s. It features a field just like football with two end zones and is played similar to a football game. To score a point, you have to catch a Frisbee “passed” from the other side by one
Recess Cleveland Rules – Capture The Flag

Recess Cleveland Rules – Wiffle Ball
Wiffle Ball is a simplified form of baseball, just like kickball. It has a diamond with four bases, but instead of an outfield, it has three scoring zones, and you can’t steal or run between bases, you can only move between them when the ball is successfully hit
Recess Cleveland Rules – Battleball
Battleball is a game most common in Australia but is picking up steam here in America. It’s just like dodgeball except players that are thrown “out” can actually play from the sidelines (see our dodgeball rules here).
