Variant with dodge ball or walk through ball instead of penalty throw.

  • Put two children opposite each other at a distance where they can't throw the ball over.
  • Let the children throw the ball over and over until one group reaches 10.
  • Do this exercise first with the right hand and then with the left hand.

If one group reaches the 10 too fast, let them throw the dice more often or increase the distance.
You can also do this exercise with bouncing.

The team stands in a circle with one person in the middle.

The ball is played in from the outside.
You run after your ball.
From the middle back to the outside, also chasing the ball.
The ball must not come to the ground and you have to run as fast as possible.
If it does hit the ground then the person who threw the ball is going to take a penalty throwThe
rest of the team plays on




Variation:

  • Alternate preferred hand with non-preferred hand.
  • Shorten or lengthen the distance to the centre.
  • Tight balls or curve balls.
  • With several balls



  • All players stand in a circle.
  • Player A throws the ball to player B, and then runs to player B's spot.
  • Player B throws the ball to player C, and stands on the spot of player C.

Start in a small circle (close to each other) and make the circle bigger and bigger.

Can be done in 2 groups, which group can stand furthest apart without making mistakes?

  • The trainer sets up two (parallel) rows of an equal number of players evenly spaced apart.
  • Both rows face a basket.
  • The ball starts with a player under the basket.
  • The person in charge plays a short pass to the first in line in front of him, the receiver catches the ball and turns around to pass it to the next in line.
  • When the ball has reached the last player in line, he passes it back to the player 2 spaces ahead of him, etc., until the ball has reached the player in front of the basket, who takes a short shot.
  • The shooter then takes the place of the declarer who then closes in behind as quickly as possible.


Variant:

  • When the ball has reached the last in line (farthest from the basket), the declarer comes to support (high, depending on distance).
  • The last player in line passes the ball to the attacker and starts a sprint for a walkthrough.
  • The player is allowed 1 rebound attempt.
  • A scored walkthrough ball is worth 3 points, a short shot 1 point.


The team that scores the most points wins. The teams learn to discover that the BALANCE between pace and precision is important. Those with pace are likely to get more chances, but those in a hurry pass inaccurately and may not finish the chances, requiring even more time. A fun game with a competitive element!
