In the same vein as Yu-Gi-Oh! and Pokémon in years past, Beyblade is alive and well at Carver today

A small group of 7 to 9 year old boys gather under the playground slide in the afternoon to play with their spinning-top Beyblades.

They develop a game that is a hybrid of tag and Beyblades; the group plays a round of tag, and the tagger and the first person tagged compete in a Beyblade battle to determine the next tagger.

They show off the designs on their Beyblades, noting that a translucent orange one performs the worst in battle but looks very cool.

One of the boys, Mason, explains how to spin the Beyblade and mentions that spinning the Beyblade in the divot in the slide helps develop the skill. He proudly brags about how funny and strong he is as he demonstrates spinning the Beyblade fast enough to travel to the top of the slide. He began playing with Beyblades when he was four years old and has since collected four Pegasus Beyblades, which are a specific type of Beyblade. As he displays his Beyblade, he notes that his Beyblade always stays intact regardless of the hits it receives and that it has swords on it that take other Beyblades apart when they collide. He rejoins the others huddled over an ongoing battle to watch it unfold.

The group continues playing their game until they eventually split off; some join other campers playing basketball in the gym, and others join a game of tag on the playground that forms until dismissal.

They make the most of their time as they become friends and play games before the end of the day.
