Take points away from teams for poor sportsmanship.
For example, if you don't see excessive celebration on scores then give that team an extra point. Give extra points to the teams for sportmanship. In addition to the 4 downs to speed things up you may give the teams a time limit as well. Throwing 4 straight long passes usually doesn't work well. Here are the specific rules of Razzle Dazzle, as taken from the article Probabilities of Winning a Certain Carnival Game by Donald A. Throughout the playing of the game it is important for the teacher to give feedback about throwing and catching but more important give feedback and demonstrate on occassion how important it is to complete shorter passes during this game. If a team does not score in four downs the ball is kicked or thrown off to the other team. Interceptions are allowed and the team catching the ball starts at the place they intercepted it and it is from there that they get their four downs. Upon scoring, the games begin with a kick or throw-off by the scoring team. The quarterback must be rotated until everyone has had a chance to be quarterback. Teams then line-up on each side of the ball and the ball is passed back to the quarterback and the game begins immediately. Downs happen when the person with the ball is tagged or when the ball is thrown to another teammate and the ball is dropped. The team that has the ball has 4 downs to bring the ball down the field over the end line. To begin the game have a throw or a kick off. If you have uneven sides then have a person rotate in on every play so one will be sitting out on one play. A good length of the field is about 50 yards. (If you have to go with just two teams that is fine also). Purpose of Activity: To teach students the value of using short passes to move down the football field. Play on two fields that are side by side if you can.
