How to play Free-Kick Wall Target Ladder

Step 1

Players shoot from the starting spot toward the called target zone.

Step 2

A clean hit moves the player to the next rung or harder target.

Step 3

A miss keeps the player on the same rung for the next turn.

Step 4

Rotate shooters in the same order until the ladder is complete.

Scoring

How the result works

Each cleared rung scores 1 point, or the first player to clear all rungs wins outright.

Example: A player hits low left, advances to high right, misses, and stays on that rung.

Host tip

Keep it clean

Using targets that are too small. Make the first rung reachable so the round starts moving.

Safety: Use a safe wall or goal area and keep everyone out of the shooting lane.
