-Setting Up:

  • Place two cones approximately 10 paces apart.

  • All players hold stability balls in their hands and line up at one of the cones, facing the other cone.

-Instructions:

  • On your signal to begin, all the players dribble their balls, with their hands, around the left side of the first cone.

  • Players must go around the right side of the first cone and then around the left side of the second cone, completing figure eights.

  • Players complete five laps of the figure eight.

-Questions & Notes:

  • With this many balls and players crossing through the middle of the figure eight at the same time, this is a game of considerable chaos. Encourage the players to enjoy the game and not to be too competitive.

  • Make this race a relay race by having two or more teams on their own courses, with each team completing the course three or more times.

  • Crazy-Eights Soccer: Played the same as Crazy-Eights Dribble except that players may use only their feet to advance the ball.

  • Guarded Crazy Eights: Played the same as Crazy-Eights Dribble except that players may hit each other’s balls away while bouncing their own.
