-Setting Up:

  • Players are paired up and stand on opposite sides of a court (volleyball, or basketball...)

  • One player holds a ball the other player holds a cone.

  • Place counters (bean bags or playing cards or....) spread out across the middle of the court between the players.

-Instructions:

  • Players throw a ball to their partner on the other side of the court.

  • Then both players run and switch places.

  • If the ball is caught in the cone the catcher picks up a counter (bean bag or playing card...) and runs to the other side of the court. The player with the cone gives it to their partner as they pass each other.

  • If the ball is not caught the catcher just juns to the other side of the court without picking up a counter.

  • When all the counters are picked up from the centre of the playing area, the game is done, and partners can tally up how many points they scored.

-Questions & Notes:

  • Variation:

  • Vary the distance between partners to maximize success.

  • Questions for Understanding:

  • What type of throw makes it easiest to catch the object?

  • What techniques assist a catcher to catch the object?
