Game Description:
A catching and throwing game that challenges players to throw and catch consecutive passes.
Objective:
Catch consecutive passes, because 1 dropped ball means returning to the starting position.
Game Rules:
Split into partners and place partners close (3' apart). The player with the ball tosses to her partner. Partner takes a step back and passes ball back. This child passes the ball back and if caught, the partner who caught the ball takes a step back. Process continues until someone drops the ball. When the ball is dropped, the two children return to the starting position and see if they can improve on their previous best.
Saftey Considerations:
Match partners according to skill level.
Remind children to only throw the ball if their partner is looking.
