Patball

A game where you throw a tennis ball so that it bounces and then hits the wall, then the next player has to do the same.
The ball is allowed to bounce once after it hits the wall, failure to [hit the ball] results in the player who missed it to go out. Boundries exist, height and width.
When the ball hits exactly between the floor and the wall it is called Mids and a rethrow is taken.
When someone gets in the way of you hitting the ball Obbs is called and a rethrow takes place.
The one who serves the ball, is allowed one fault/bad serve.
