Soccer Frenzy – Ball Frenzy – Super Ball Frenzy

1. Soccer Frenzy: Kicking only – Including Goalies

2. Ball Frenzy: Throwing only – Goalies may use hands and body

3. Super Ball Frenzy: Throwing and Kicking allowed. Goalies may also use hands and/or kick

Setup and Equipment:

Twenty pins are lined up on the black lines in front of the opposing walls.
It works best to pick a couple of students to begin setting up the targets while the rules are covered and the teams set.
Break class into two teams. In our gym we have four teams (red, blue, yellow, green). So it’s pretty easy to put two teams on each side.
The dividing line in the middle of the gym cannot be crossed
Each team has twenty pins that are defended by goalies on their team.
Each team starts with an equal number of soft foam balls.(between 10-15 works well)
Players sit in front of their targets and wait for the music to start to begin the game.

Guidelines:

The object of the game is to knock down all of the targets on the opposite side of the gym.
The balls may be thrown or kicked, depending on which game you’re playing.
No balls may be knocked out of the air with a thrown ball
When a targets is knocked down, it works best if it is immediately put into the container that it came from.
Note: For K,1,2 they often choose to put the targets back up.
Players may switch on their team between protecting the targets and throwing at the other team’s targets.
If a goalie accidentally knocks over targets, they must stay down
Switch ends of the gym after all targets are knocked down.

Six groups of students are lined up relay style at one end of the gym.
Set a pail with beanbags at the opposite side of the gym. Put the poly spots in a circle surrounding the the pail. Put the 5 point spots closest to the pail, the 10 point spots go next. The spots that are the most challenging are the 20 point spots which are placed the furthest out.
20 points for yellow – 20 points for green
10 points for red and blue
5 points for purple- 5 points for orange
Each color team (6 teams) has it’s own beanbag and may only throw and retrieve that beanbag.

Guidelines:

On the start signal one player from each team takes their beanbag to a spot and tries to throw it into the pail in center of gym. One foot may be on the spot and the the other foot must be behind the spot.
If the player makes it into the pail, they will pick up the poly spot and take it back to their team. If a player misses the pail, they just run and pick up the beanbag and return it to the next player on their team, then go to the end of the line.
Play continues until all of the spots are gone. Players may want to add up their points at the end of the game.
