In Canada... I remember my sister having a fit because my aunt let her kids play with an old set...
You can probably buy old sets on auction sites..

No teams... Every man for himself...
One guy throws the ball against the wall...
Others try to catch it.. If you catch it before it hits the ground you get to "throws" against the original thrower... Catch it after a single bounce you get one "throw"...
If you touch the ball, but fail to catch it, the guy who chicked it against the wall gets a "throw" against you...
A "throw" involves the guy being punished standing facing the wall... He puts his hands on the wall and neither they not his feet can move... But he can shift his weight or try to move his hips...
The guy who gets the "throw" stands at a designated spot (maybe thirty feet back) and gets to whip the ball at the guy standing at the wall....
We used to play this every day... Our backs and legs and asses would have ungly red marks or bruises....
The worst was when the ball missed, hit the wall, and doubled back into your face... Got a wicked black eye from that once... And a couple of nose bleeds...
School eventually banned it... Some kid's parents complained...

Damn. I thought our walnut fights were rough. What happened to Canadians? When we went up there to wrestle them in college they were a tough bunch. We won the match but they won the snowball fight and the beer drinking contest.

These days our kids aren't even allowed to play dodgeball...
And there has been talk of banning hockey from the PE curriculum...
Lots of playground equipment has been replaced...
My sister's kids are 8 and 7... Have been in swimming lessons for years... But are afraid to go in the water without a life jacket
I remember when I was 12 and she was 10 we had gone on one of our cross-country trips to visit family... We were in Ontario on the Rainy lake at a cousin's cabin... Huge storm... Trees going down... Waves swamping the dock... And our mom let us put on lifejacketa, tie ourselves to the dock with some rope, and play in the waves...
It was awesome...
