Two participants stand opposite each other on the narrow side of a long bench and try to unbalance their partner by throwing a medicine ball at them so that they have to leave the bench when they catch the ball.

► Balance skills

2 long benches
1 medicine ball

Post set-up:
Place two long benches parallel to each other at a distance of approx. 2-3 metres.

Both feet point in the same direction, the gaze and shoulders are directed towards the end point of the slackline, the arms are at a 90 degree angle to the slackline (slalckline and arms form a '+' sign), feet at least hip-width apart, knees slightly bent.

Lighten the load:
Perform the exercise close to the attachment; stretch the slackline tightly over a short distance (3-5m); sit a partner in the middle of the slackline to dampen the initial trembling; help a partner by holding their hand (always go with the balancing movement and only stabilise if the slackliner is about to fall).

Make it harder:
Stretch the slackline over a long distance.

1 Slackline

Stepping position, arms held high, pushing leg in front, lifting the swinging leg and lowering the torso, placing the front hand on the floor and turning the body to the side, pushing with the pushing leg and placing the second hand, swinging up to a straddled side handstand, quickly lowering and placing the swinging leg and then straightening up to stand upright.

Variant:
One-handed wheel, jumped wheel, wheel turn (rondat).

The participants practise the movement form independently using series of pictures or based on the instructor's demonstration of the exercise. The instructor (or a partner) gives feedback, provides support and checks that the exercise is being performed correctly.

The participants throw a volleyball to each other over a thick mat into a field of approx. 5-6 metres defined by marker cones. To prevent an opponent scoring a point, the ball must be caught before it touches the ground. Throws that do not reach the playing field or get stuck on the mat result in a point for the opponent. Throws are only allowed from bottom to top.

► Reactivity

1 mat trolley (large; incl. mat)
1 volleyball
4 cones

Post setup:
The mat trolley serves as a boundary between the two halves of the playing field. The size of the playing field is marked with cones

One participant sits on the floor with their back against the vaulting box. His legs are spread apart, his arms are held out in front of him and his gaze is fixed on a marker cone about 5-6 metres in front of him. The partner kneels/stands on the vaulting box and drops a foam/softball with their arms outstretched forwards. The seated participant tries to catch the ball before it falls to the floor. After a few attempts, the roles are swapped.

► Reactivity

1 vaulting box ► indoor version
1 marker cone/cap
1 foam/softball

Indoor set-up:
A marker cone/cap is located approximately 5-6 metres from the vaulting box.

Outdoor version:
Without vaulting box; the partner stands on the ground.

One participant supports themselves with their forearm on a vaulting box and holds their hand slightly open. His partner holds a stick (or floorball stick) in the opening of the active participant's hand (distance between palm and stick: approx. 1cm) with the end of the stick at the bottom edge of the hand. If the partner drops the stick, the active participant tries to catch it as quickly as possible.

Variant:
Perform the exercise simultaneously with both hands and one stick per hand. Only one stick is dropped at a time (choice reaction).

► Reactivity

1 vaulting box
1-2 (wooden) sticks or floorball sticks

A participant stands on a pommel horse. He has his hands stretched out to the side and is holding a volleyball in each hand. The second participant stands approx. 1-2 metres in front of the pommel horse and throws another volleyball to the participant standing on the horse. If the pass goes to the head, the ball is passed back with the head. If the pass comes to the feet, the ball is passed back with the left or right foot (depending on the side of the pass). If the pass comes to one of the outstretched arms, the ball held in the hands must be passed to the partner and the new ball must be caught. The passer can make the exercise easier or more difficult by looking at where the pass is made or not. After a few attempts, the roles are swapped.

► Balance and reaction skills

1 pommel horse
3 volleyballs

The participants stand behind each other, the participant at the back is equipped with a futsal/football. The person behind passes the ball to their partner from behind between their legs or throws it forwards over their partner's head. The partner must react as quickly as possible and intercept/stop the ball as early as possible. After a few attempts, the roles are reversed.

► Reactivity

1 Futsal/football

The participant hops over the tyres distributed on the floor. If two hoops are at the same height, both legs are used. Individual hoops are passed with the leg corresponding to the respective side. The hoops can be jumped through forwards or backwards. To make hoop jumping more difficult, the respective arm on the same or even opposite side can be lifted or stretched to the side at the same time when standing.

► Rhythmisation ability, orientation ability, balance ability

20-30 tyres

Post set-up:
Lay out the tyres to form a jumping course.

From a standing position, roll backwards and place your feet on the floor behind your hands as quickly and as close as possible to return to a standing position. Curl your upper body like a turtle shell during the entire rolling movement from the top of your head to your tailbone. Roll over the upper back and shoulders and not over the head.

The participants practise the form of movement independently using series of pictures or based on the instructor's demonstration of the exercise. The instructor (or a partner) gives feedback, provides support and checks that the exercise is being performed correctly.

Roll backwards from an upright position, placing your feet on the floor as quickly and as close as possible behind your hands. Curl your upper body like a turtle shell during the entire rolling movement from the top of your head to your tailbone. Roll over the upper back and shoulders and not over the head. At the end of the roll, push your body into a handstand (full body stretch). The arms can be bent at first and then stretched or remain stretched throughout the movement. From the handstand, place the legs on the floor to return to the standing position.

In order to be able to perform this sequence of movements, it is necessary to be able to roll forwards and backwards, have appropriate support in the arms and master the tilt kick movement.

The participants practise the form of movement independently using series pictures or based on the demonstration of the exercise by the sports leader. The sports instructor (or a partner) gives feedback, provides support and checks that the exercise is being performed correctly.
