Joke...
Used to stand on the pavement, opposite sides of the street - throw a ball across and if it hit the kerb and bounced back, that was a point and you went again - first to 10 or something.
Cars used to interfere quite often with the natural flow of the game.

40/40 was called Pompom In round our way. Hello Sailor...
Growing up in the sticks we used to play Bean war. Basically, the local farmers would play bean every once in a while but not do anything with them - good for the soil or something. Anyway - you'd get two teams and arm yourselves with a bean stalk you'd uprooted and charge the other team and use them as weapons. Kind of a fenland version of army. If you were really lucky you'd find a load of dumped potatoes so you could add projectiles to your arsenal.
We knew how to live in the fens....

No, we used to do that as well.
Well, similar - used to have a building site opposite for a few years, so there was always loads of chunks of mud handy, some of which contained quite a few stones. Be half a dozen of us and the game consisted of standing on different mounds, and lobbing mud/stones at each other, until the last man was standing. Good trick was to lob one really high in the air, and when the opponent was watching that, launch another one direct at the face. (as you do, aged 12).
Variation of it, was for someone to see how far they could get down the road on a skateboard, with things being thrown at them from all angles.
Sometimes we also played kerbie, to break things up.

There was a game I think we called Kingy where you had to hit someone (preferably hard) with a tennis ball or similar.
Also French Cricket where the objective was to whack the batsman on the shins with a cricket ball from about 6 feet away.

Stone fights? Essentially just throwing stones at each other usually using dustbin lids as protection. Surely lots of other people did that?

Lolly sticks.
Player 1 held lolly stick between hands while Player 2 struck it with thin edge of his lolly stick. Winning stick became a ones-er as with conkers.

Used to play one back in the 80s called Bundles.
Had to reach a school fence before a tennis ball otherwise you got a 10 second kick in from everyone.
We used to play that everyday which was bizarre giving it wasn't pleasant if you didn't make the fence quick enough.
Think it was more violent version of British bulldog.
