What is the game Annie-over?

Answer 1

Annie-over is a children's outdoor game typically played in a large, open space. The game involves two teams, with one team throwing a ball over a designated area (like a house or tree) while the other team hides on the opposite side. The objective is for the throwing team to call out "Annie-over" after tossing the ball, prompting the hidden team to try to catch the ball as it comes back down. If they catch it, they switch roles; if not, they must retrieve the ball, and the game continues.
