Game preparation:
To set up a relatively large space is required, the red "blade of grass" comes (always at a distance of a grasshopper length to all directions) are alternately placed 3 light and 3 dark-green "grass" in the center of the court and around. These are around the remaining 12 "blades of grass" in turn alternately placed in their colors.
The teams (1: 1, 2: 2, 1: 3, 2: 4, the team size can be arbitrary) opt for one of the two colors and take the associated grasshoppers.
Aim of the game:
To have the first team knocked all own and the last red blade of grass!
How to play:
The active player of a team takes the grasshopper and allowed half an arm length (each has relative to body size approximately the same distance from the stalks) position it in front of the grasses.
To jump, he pushes the abdomen (the two pointed wings) down and let him go again. With a little practice, you can here to estimate approximately how much you have to press in order to achieve a certain range.
After the flight Hüpfers ^^ be seen if he could clear up blades of grass, or not.
All overturned blades of grass (own and the opposing team) will be removed from the board and again withdrawn the grasshoppers from the team.
Should not have been made, everything remains standing and only the hopper is withdrawn.
If the red blade of grass overturned, although still standing own grass blades upright, this is re-erected and the opposing team must remove its own, any blade of grass - this is also true when it happens to the last blade of grass own.
In any case, now followed by a player of the other team.
Full time:
The game ends when one team all own and then overturned the red blade of grass has. This team will win.

The goal remains the same and started a whole arm's length in front of the route start.
It should be ensured that the height differences remain possible under 40cm, so that the "jumping-leave" can also be successful. Fallen opposing blades of grass to be erected this again here.
