Team Games - Exercise:
Half of the kids dribble a ball while moving freely over the practice pitch. The fun starts when a kid with a ball meets one without a ball.
Dribbling, coordination, communication
Mr. Smith=The boys in the team
Mrs. Jones=The girls in the team
Fruit=Ball
Mr Smith and Mrs Jones are very nice people. They’ve been shopping, and they’ve bought some fruit for their neighbours. Now they bump into each other on the street. “Hello, Mr Smith” and “Hello, Mrs Jones”, the pair call out to each other as a greeting. The fruit is then passed over, and with the words “Goodbye, Mr Smith” and “Goodbye, Mrs Jones”, the pair continue on their way. They also shake hands, of course.
A playing field is marked out and every second kid gets a ball.
Half of the kids dribble with the ball, moving freely around the playing field. If a kid with a ball meets one without one, the ball is given to the other player. To to this, the player with the ball quickly steps on the ball.The players greet and say goodbye to each other, and the kids continue on their way.
