    Hopscotch is a popular outdoor game that is typically played on a sidewalk. The game involves hopping or jumping from one numbered square to another, following a specific pattern.

    In the game of dodgeball, how can you get an opponent "out" (other than hitting them with a ball)?

    • Sneaking Onto Their Side

    • Tackling Them

    • Catching A Ball They've Thrown

    • Pulling Them Onto Your Side

    Correct Answer
    A. Catching A Ball They've Thrown
    Explanation
    To get an opponent "out" in dodgeball, you can catch a ball they've thrown. This means that if an opponent throws a ball at you and you catch it before it touches the ground, you can eliminate them from the game. This requires good reflexes and hand-eye coordination to react quickly and successfully catch the ball. By catching the opponent's thrown ball, you prevent it from hitting you or any of your teammates, thus eliminating the opponent and gaining an advantage for your team.
