If the ball touches the ground, they just reset and continue their count. (Example - player juggles 5 times and then the ball drops to the ground. They start juggling again and continue counting from 5).

If the ball hits the ground before the 2 minutes is up, the player can restart and try again, but must start counting from zero again. In the event players are still juggling at the end of the 2 minutes, the competition will end when the last player’s ball touches the ground.
