How to Play Hackysack. Kicking around a hackysack develops agility and coordination and is a
fun game to practice alone or play with friends. You will need A hackysack and two or more
friends. Step 1. Gather your friends in a circle about four to five feet across. Step
2. Serve the hackysack to any player by gently tossing it about waist high. Tip: Only the
server can use his hands—and only when he serves the hackysack. Step 3. Keep the hackysack
in the air using any part of the body but your arms or hands. Use your thigh, heel,
inside of the foot, and forehead to keep it aloft. Step 4. Pass the hackysack back and
forth around the circle of players for as long as possible. Step 5. If a player lets
the hackysack hit the ground—or touches it with a hand or arm—it "kills" the hack,
and game must be restarted. Step 6. Play until you tire of kicking the bag around. Did you
know In 1997, Ted Martin set an individual hackysack record with 63,326 consecutive kicks.
