Backwards/forwards queen of the rink

Split the group into two. #1s all skate forwards, #2 skate backwards. Then you just play Queen of the Rink as usual! You hit other players; if they go out of bounds or fall, they're out. BUT: if you hit/get hit, you have to switch direction. So if you hit someone when you were skating forwards, then you have to turn around and skate backwards. And the person you hit (if they didn't fall) has to also switch direction too. Last one standing wins. :D

This one was really fun, and you don't even think much about the transitioning you're doing. It's tricky with direction of play/stop blocks though, but I think with practice, transitions and hits come easier even if you're not facing the direction your skates are going in.
