It's Called the "Hoop Hop Showdown"

This would make a fantastic bad weather activity.
Two teams each send a hopper from opposite sides.

When they meet, they do "Rock, Paper, Scissors".

If they tie, they do it again.
Winner gets to go forward, while the loser rejoins his team (and that team sends a new person forward.)

Goal is to reach the last hoop.
