Which team is first in showing a line of 13 cards of their kind?

A large, thick mat in the middle of the field.

Surrounded by obstacles to hide behind.

A number of kids is on the mat and have to try to throw the other kids off the mat with the balls.

The other children have to try to get completely around the field before they can hand in, for example, a dot or a ring as a point.

Requirements:

Balls, thick mat, obstacles such as chest or carts, and dots or hats to be used as points.

1. Place your left foot diagonally behind your right foot, at a distance of about 60 cm.
2. Rotate your hips back in the direction your right foot is pointing.
3. Lower your right leg and keep the heel of your right foot on the ground
4. Return to the starting position and repeat the movement with your other body half.

Basic exercise:

• Trainer throws the ball, player catches the ball and puts it in the cart.
• Then the player goes to the ladder, goes through it, and joins the next line. 

Differentiation/Expansion:

1. Throw difficult balls (left and right, front and back).
2. Play underhand for themselves and catch.
3. Two players get ready next to each other and have to call let go.
4. A setupper is added who has to catch the underhand ball.
5. An attacker is added who has to play the setupper's ball over the net.

• Make trios
• Each trio has a ball.
• Player in the middle keeps running an 8. Every time this player comes in the middle, a ball is thrown:
  • A throws (or plays overarm) the ball to B (in the middle)
  • B throws the ball underhand back to A and then runs around A until he is back in the middle.
  • Meanwhile, A plays the ball to C
  • C returns the ball overarm to B.
  • B plays the ball underhand back to C and then runs around C until he is back in the middle.
  • Enz.
• after 2-3 minutes the player in the middle is changed. 

Variation: 

• To make it simpler, player A and C can throw instead of playing overarm. Could be underhand throwing/catching or overarm throwing/catching.
• To practice standing still when playing/throwing, player B can throw and catch underhand.  

Divide over 3m line. Throw ball in zig-zag pattern and follow. See picture.
Later, play underhand, only overarm. One side of the net underhand, other side overarm.

The four quart fields have been numbered (see triangles in picture) The goal is to reach field 1 as a team by not making any mistakes!

The game begins with bringing the ball into the field. This can be done by the trainer, but also a player can throw the ball over the net.

The pair that receives the ball plays the ball over the net by playing three times (mandatory!) etc..
The team that makes a mistake leaves the field (in case of 5 teams) or goes to field four (in case of 4 teams).
The other teams rotate a field.
So when the team in field two makes a mistake, they leave the field, field 3 rotates to field 2, field 4 to field 3, and the fifth team goes to field 4 .

After 10 minutes the game stops, and the team in field 1 is the winner!
