Bad Idea #71: Nutball

And they call it a SOFTball?
From Jackass (which I probably could not stand to watch in full) there is the game of nutball. That version has only male players, clad in only shorts or briefs with bullseyes on them, lobbing balls at each other's balls. Well, that just won't do for this, so instead there is this variation:
He's sitting down, or more likely strapped down, wearing (if anything) underwear with a bullseye positioned just so. Perhaps on a bed of sorts, angled to allow any ball thrown to roll down to return to the thrower(s). Two (or more?) women lob balls at the target's balls.
If this is a contest rather than entertainment only or a practice session, how to determine a win? Perhaps when someone gets a set number of hits above any competitors? Yes, it could go on for a long (and for him, painful) time. For more than two players, it might mean the winner is the first out of the game - but she gets to keep watching, and it continues until the next player wins over any others. The last player is the lowest ranking - and gets what she needs: the most practice. Perhaps even having an additional number of pitches beyond the final win. Say, the number of hits to win against.
Would anyone 'throw' the game and play to lose? Perhaps. But maybe there is a way to handle that: rewards for the winner(s), consequences for the loser(s). Why yes, I do have a couple ideas that might work for that. And the target gets to play, too, in such. Would some still play to lose? Perhaps.
Best seat in the house to watch you practice? Oh, watch you play? Well...

And I have a couple followups (penalty{?} for the loser, reward for the winner)in mind I am fairly sure you'd play to win - or at least not lose - after seeing those. Of course, what the players decide on is apt to change game to game.
