Basket Dance

To make the run-throughs a little more fun, we'll make it a contest!

You put a number of baskets in a circle with one passer on each occasion.
There are also more players than baskets in the middle
Every run through counts for 1 point
- If you score a run-through, you take your turn
- If you miss the follow-through, you and the server swap positions
The first player to score 6 points wins. Number of points to be determined on what the players can do.

variation:

you can do different sizes of baskets and give them a different score
- for example an archer basket counts for 2 points

Teaching a walkthrough

Step 1: Each player has their own ball and line up one after the other at 6 meters in front of the basket. Then the first in line walks toward the basket and takes a penalty throw. This is done in a smooth motion.
Step 2: Same setup as step 1. Only now a player also stands in support, slightly in front of the penalty throw spot. This one puts the ball on one hand. The runner approaches, grabs the ball from the hand and takes a penalty throw.
Step 3: Same as step 2. Only the declarer throws the ball up a little.
