Topic description

A runner carrying a ball in his hands runs along the course towards the turnaround point (marking cone). Halfway along the course there is an additional marking cone. The ball is deposited on this cone. The ball is then run around the turnaround. On the way back, the ball is picked up again before the next runner is sent onto the course.

Locomotion:
1st run = sideways steps / 2nd run = crossover run / 3rd run = sprint

Release:
Always run behind the waiting group. 1st release = pass the ball forwards between the legs / 2nd release = pass the ball forwards over the heads / 3rd release = pass the ball forwards alternately between the legs and over the heads.

Material

Per group:
3 marking cones

Topic description

In a limited playing field, the game is played 4:1, 5:1, 5:2 or 6:2, for example. The "tiger" in the centre chases the ball/throwing disc, while the outside players pass the ball/throwing disc to each other (with their hands, feet or playing equipment, depending on the type of game). If the "tiger" touches the ball/throwing disc or an outfield player makes a mistake (e.g. ball/throwing disc leaves the playing field or falls to the ground after a pass), the roles of the "tiger" and the person responsible for the mistake are swapped.

The following rules apply to the game form:

  • The ball, which is balanced on the stick, may be carried a maximum of 4 steps and must then be passed immediately.
  • The ball may be touched a maximum of 4 times before it is played on.
  • The ball at rest on the stick, without movement of the player, may be held for a maximum of 4 seconds.
  • The ball may not be covered with the racket or the body, but must be played on immediately.
  • It is not permitted to actively play the ball with the foot or lower leg, with the hand, the arm or the head (free hit).

If the ball leaves the playing field, it is brought back into play by a free hit by the opposing team at the place of action.

View
Topic description

Each group receives two small mats. The group must now cover a certain distance without touching the floor. In other words, the whole group stands on one mat and the person at the back of the group passes the free mat to the front. The free mat is placed in front of the mat occupied by the participants so that all participants can move onto it without touching the floor. The free mat is then moved forwards.
The group moves in this way until it reaches the turning point (both mats have passed the colouring stick). If a participant touches the ground on the way, the whole group must return to the starting point and start the course all over again. If the course is successfully completed, one person is transported on the mat on the way back.
It is important to remember that the second mat must also be transported back to the start; the group can transport one person on both mats or the second mat can be carried back separately.
The relay form is repeated until every participant in the group has been transported once on a mat (or define a certain number of participants for the transport due to the time conditions).

In the field, committee tents can be used instead of mats.

2 painting sticks

Topic description

All participants except the front and back of the group lie down parallel in a row (facing the floor). There is a distance of one to two metres between the participants. The participant at the beginning of the chain has a ball at the start. On his or her command, the lying participants move into the push-up position and form a tunnel. The participant in front rolls the ball through the tunnel and then lies down in the row. On the other side of the tunnel, the ball is caught by the second standing participant (last in the row). The latter then hops over the participants who are lying down again and then rolls the ball through the tunnel. The last participant in the row becomes the new ball catcher. If the thrower does not roll the ball correctly through the tunnel or it does not reach the catcher, the attempt must be repeated (as often as necessary until it works).

Possible competition format: The winner is the group in which all participants have first rolled the ball through the tunnel once (or several times) and the whole group is back in a standing position.

Topic description

One group adjusts the ball/disc in a defined playing field so that they can touch a participant from the other group with the ball/disc ("dabbing", without throwing). You are not allowed to move with the ball/disc (maximum star step). Each "dab", or when a chased player leaves the playing field, results in a point. Which group collects more points in a given time?

Variant I:
If a participant touches the ball/disc, they are eliminated from the game (they may have to perform an additional task, such as remaining in a forearm support position). The sports leader times how long it takes for the entire group to be eliminated.
Variant II:
2-3 catchers try to touch the other participants with the ball/throwing disc (no throwing). Anyone touched by a catcher is eliminated and performs an additional task (e.g. 20 push-ups or trunk bends) and then takes part in the game again. The catchers are changed regularly

All balls are distributed in the centre of the playing area (e.g. in vaulting box elements, hoops or on soft mats). The groups start behind their baseline and try to fill their depot (e.g. vault elements, tyres or soft mats) with balls after the start signal. Only one ball may be transported per run (if necessary, define the method of transporting the ball: carrying, bouncing, dribbling or rolling). Which group has collected more balls after a certain time?

Variant:
As soon as the supply of balls in the centre has been used up, balls can be stolen from the other team's storage area.

The participant stands in front of a wall and performs various tasks specified by the sports instructor. The exercises should be performed with both the stronger and weaker side.

  • Wall passes with the forehand and backhand (direct or bounce the ball on the floor before hitting; distances vary).
  • Overhead balls: the ball hits the ground in front of the wall so that it then bounces back in a high arc and can be hit to the ground again over the head.
  • From a shorter distance, play the ball against the wall behind the back, catch the ball with the racket and pass it again behind the back and against the wall (no ground contact of the ball).

Topic description

All participants line up in a circle. Person A calls out the name of person B, A throws the ball to B and runs after the thrown ball. As soon as B has caught the ball, another participant calls out their name (C) and the ball is thrown to C before A arrives at their place (B). Tip: running slowly generates more time for the next throw.

If the ball is badly thrown, not caught or the thrower is already at the catcher's place before the catcher has thrown the ball, various exercises can be integrated as an "additional task" (e.g. push-ups, squats, jumping jacks, etc.).

Variations:
Ball is thrown to B, the person to the left of B must move;
Ball is thrown to B, B calls "right/left", person to the right or left must move;
Ball is passed to B via the floor, meaning the person to the right of B moves, or the ball is thrown in the air and the person to the left of B moves.
