Job Description

Like the title of the job implies, there are three game balls, one ball is in play at all times. When a team scores a point the current ball is removed from play (the individual closest will retrieve it). The individual on the side that scored a point will throw in a new ball and the balls will rotate so the workers on the end have a ball at all times. As the middle person, they are required to roll the ball in between workers so that the extra balls do not enter play(workers are taught to roll they ball like they are bowling).
