1st Activity (warm-up) Greetings Game

All the players run around randomly inside a rectangle. The coach

calls out various types of greetings, which each players then has to

carry out with others: shake hands, high fives (one hand), high fives

(other hand), shoulder to shoulder, back to back, etc.

Progressions: Add dribbling.

2nd Activity Red Light, Green Light

All the players start on a designated line with the coach about 15 yards

away. With his back to the players the coach yells green light and the

players try to dribble to the coach. When the coach yells red light he

waits a moment and then turns his back to face the players. Anyone

who is not stopped moving has to go back to where the person farthest

away from the coach is.

Progressions: Add a ball. The coach can move around to make the

game more challenging.

3rd Activity Ouch!

Each player has a ball. The coach jogs around in a rectangle and the

players try to kick their ball so that it hits the coach. The players get a

point each time they hit the coach. The coach should yell "ouch" each

time they are hit to make the game more exciting.

Progressions: The coach can stop for three seconds or vary how fast

they are moving depending on the level of the players. Specify how

the players must strike the ball (laces, one foot, other foot)

4th Activity Frog Attack

The game takes place in a rectangle; all the players start off on one side

of the rectangle and try to get to the other side. Two players who are

frogs must hop and try to tag the other players as they try to get to the

other line. When a player is tagged they become a frog as well. Play

until only two children are left. Those children become the frogs for

the next game.

Progressions: Add a ball (for the players, not the frogs)
