How to Play?

The Golden Rule of HalleyBall

Always throw it by the tail, and only catch it by the tail! If you grab the ball part, it doesn’t count.

Classic Passing

2+ players

The goal is simple: keep the ball in the air as long as possible without dropping it. Start close, then increase the distance. Ideal for warming up.

Elimination (Circle Game)

3+ players

This is the most exciting group mode!

  • Stand in a circle. The thrower calls out the target's name (e.g., "Anna!") and throws the ball.
  • The throw must land within approx. a 3-meter radius of the target. If the throw is bad, the thrower gets a penalty point and/or is eliminated.
  • If the throw is good (within range), but the receiving player cannot catch it by the tail (or catches the ball part), the receiver gets a penalty point and/or is eliminated.

  • The winner is the last player remaining.

Hot Ball Game

4+ players

Speed is key. As soon as you catch it, you must throw it immediately, maximum within a half-turn. Anyone who holds onto the ball too long gets a penalty point.

Pro Tips for better play:

  • Aiming: For more accurate aiming, stand perpendicular to the target and spin the ball in front of you.
  • Grip: For a comfortable throw, grab the tail at the second color section.
  • Direction: Spin clockwise
