Score.

1, 2, 3, 4. Keep that bag off the floor.

Score.

How many of you would be able to play 4square without a score?
Just for fun, playing to play, not worrying if you're winning or not, or if you're saying the right score.

Don't know. I sometimes play with no interest in scoring, but that's only when I'm playing really poorly.

I'm not sure I'd stay motivated to play by the rules if there wasn't competition involved. I'd probably rather circle-kick or freestyle.

I don't care as much about the winner of 15 or 21 points. A good round is the most fun to me.

Oh this give me an idea! No king square. If you get out a certain number of times than ur out. last man standing.

I could probably start off by not keeping a score in 4S but the competitive side of me would eventually take over. I've played for no score when I offer a bag as a prize and let the Lane kids duke it out with each other. I'll just play along as a distraction.

I've played 2S with no score both as a warm up and just for fun.

Usually when I play (which is kinda rare) I don't keep score.

I don't play 4S to win, I just like getting to be silly with my friends.

Also, if I am playing with newer players I don't keep score because it can be sorta deterring n stuff.

Totally the same way I am. But it's hard to play anymore, except if i go play at Lane with everyone where the games are not soo serious.
Everywhere else, everyone is very competitive.

I guess that's what I get for being in the worlds biggest 4square club.

We played some timed 4-square last Sunday. There is no score but whomever is in king square after x amount of minutes passes is the winner. We added a 4 kick maximum to keep players from camping out in the squares.
