-Setting Up:
Use the available space (basketball court indoors or soccer field), but you can adjust the size based on the abilities of the players.
Create teams of two with a group of 12 players.
Equally space the players in a circle about three metres away from the BounceBlast™ Rebounder.
One member of each team will have a ball.
Each team’s ball should be a different colour.
-Instructions:
On a signal, the player with the ball will throw it off the rebounder, trying to get it to rebound to her partner.
Players cannot move their feet to catch or throw the ball.
Every time that the ball is successfully caught, (if it was thrown by a teammate) the team scores a point.
No point is scored if the ball bounces on the floor after hitting the rebounder.
Players can move to retrieve the team’s ball before it can be thrown again.
Either partner can throw or catch the ball to score a point.
The first team to 10 points wins the game.
-Questions & Notes:
Variations:
Play for a specific amount of time and the team with the most points wins.
Vary the distance the players need to be away from the rebounder.
Create teams of three (either teammate can catch the ball).
