So happy I found this resource. Introduced the kids to rescue last week and I was blown away by some of their strategies. Going to introduce them to sinkerball next.

Very creative game idea. Love how easy it is to use variations and practice different skills with paddles, hockey, throwing or kicking ect.

I like the idea of using small cones like Zoo-Flow said to make it easier for younger kids.

Thanks for sharing!

I like the moving target idea. I'm going to try it where the object is to get the pins from one baseline to the other. If it falls off or gets knocked off you just return to the end with the supply of pins and reload. Get a point for every pin you successfully ferry to the opposite end. Also going to arm the 'guard' for each scooter with a pool noodle. I'll let you know how it goes.

Thanks for all your game ideas! It has really helped me out with my very first PE job. The kids are having a blast! I even use some of these ideas with my basketball team. It is awesome that you take the time to do this!

We have this game at my school where they put the basketball hoops on separate sides of the gym then split the gym into two and the objective is to throw a rubber football into the opponents basketball hoop. You get out if you get hit with a small ball then you go to "jail" on your opponents side which there are large balls that if you catch one in the "jail" then you are back in the game. Our class also added an extra rule that if you get an orange ball into the opponents hoop then every one gets out of jail. We called it powerball but I don't think that's the real name, lol. Have you done a video on it? I couldn't find one if you did.

seems decent but the pins would be very difficult to pull across. I might.vary it.by using a small cone. also allowing throwers to come out and get ball seems like it could get a bit crazy. they may sneakily knock a pin, or throw ball while out of throwing zone. perhaps having one or two retrievers to collect ball and pass to throwers. thoughts?

awesome video answer appreciate pics of your class. would also like to see short video clips at the end of your animation to have a live short demo of game.
either way, still love this channel!!

Could you play this game with playground (kick) balls? I don't have many soft dodgeballs - and more disappeared lately.
