Tactical Focus:
Create Space
|
 |
Select two teams of six players. (Three designated offense, three defense who must stay in their half). |
|
Put (e.g., a hoop, paper) or select (e.g., a brick) a target on each wall. The size should be appropriate to the abilities of the group. |
|
Leader tosses a ball into the playing area to start the game. |
|
Balls are passed with the scoops. |
|
Players may take only three steps with the ball, and pass or throw at the target within five seconds. |
|
Only offensive players may score by hitting the target on the wall. |
|
Once a player has possession of the ball in his/her scoop, an opposing player may not take it away. |
|
 |
 |
|
Add a second ball. |
|
Basketball Scoop Ball: Hitting the back board counts as one point, going into the basket is worth three points. |
|
Lacrosse Scoop Ball: Flip hockey net over so that you are shooting at the small part of the net. Define a crease where no one can enter. Do not use a goalie. |
