Topic description

Single game for a certain number of points (e.g. 10). If the group size is uneven (e.g. 3 participants), one player enjoys a break, whereby the duration of the game is reduced (e.g. 7 points) so that waiting times are shortened.

Additional task Strengthening:
After each game, the loser completes a strength exercise: 5x push-ups

Topic description

Pendulum relay with several teams (participants of the teams are evenly distributed on markers approx. 20 metres apart). Each team has a bat and a speeder. The first runner from each team must balance the speeder with the bat to the other side and hand the bat and speeder to the next runner. If the speeder falls down, it must be picked up and placed back on the bat. Each player completes two runs (i.e. the players are in the same position at the end as at the beginning).

Variant:
The players must hit the speeder into the air at least 10 times during the race.

Topic description

Two participants stand opposite each other. One participant moves to the side with a step. The feet remain shoulder-width apart, the foot closer to the direction of movement initiates the movement. The weight is on the balls of the feet, the steps are springy and gliding. The partner constantly tries to remain facing him and imitate all (arm) movements. After a while, the roles are swapped.

Two participants stand opposite each other on one leg and both hold their fists at head height. One participant sets the positions by jumping with one leg between the tyres laid out on the floor (identical tyre arrangement for both participants). The second participant tries to re-establish the same distance as quickly as possible. After a certain time, change the jumping leg and/or the rollers.

Play with howler

Games / Tournament

Howler, Marking cones/caps

Topic description

Play idea:
The team in possession of the howler attempts to move the ball in the direction of the targeted end zone. The opposing team tries to prevent this movement and force possession of the howler by means of a "turnover" (see rules of the game). The howler may only be moved by throws from one player to the other.

Scoring points:
The aim is to catch the howler in the opposite end zone following a pass from a team-mate and thus score a point.

Playing field:
Rectangular field with an end zone at each end. 64mx37m with 18m outdoor end zone, 40mx25m with 15m indoor end zone.

The pitch is bounded by cones. The connections between them form the side or out lines.

Number of ends:
7 against 7 outdoor, 5 against 5 indoor

Game rules:
At the start of the game and after each point, the teams line up on their end zone line. The team that starts or has just scored throws a high, long pass towards the opponent's end zone (throw-off). As soon as the howler is released, all participants may move freely on the field.

The howler may be thrown in any direction. The player with the howler in his hands may neither walk nor run, only star steps are allowed. However, if the toy is caught during the race, the movement may be slowed down by the required number of steps. The howler may not be handed over, but must move from A to B through the air. If the attackers are unable to catch the howler (the howler touches the ground, flies out of bounds or the opponent intercepts it or knocks it to the ground), the defending team gains possession of the howler and attacks. This is referred to as a "turnover". There is no interruption to the game.

The defender covering the thrower must keep at least an arm's length away. Only one player may cover the thrower at a time; the next defender must be at least three metres away. The attacker must play the howler after a maximum of 10 seconds. To signal this, the defender counts the seconds out loud.

Body contact or tackling is not permitted. Each player is responsible for signalling an infringement of the rules. There is no referee. Fair play is therefore very important. If an attacker and a defender catch the howler at the same time, it belongs to the attacker.

Optional: After a successful point is scored, the teams switch sides. The team that scored the point then starts again with a throw-off towards the opposing team.

From a standing position, tilt your upper body slightly forwards, stretch your arms backwards at an angle to your body (like a ski jumper on a ski jump), push off the ground powerfully to jump onto a raised object (plyo box or swinging box element incl. top) (use the momentum of your arms), straighten your upper body (stand on the object) and jump back to the starting position (possibly the other side of the object).

Attention:
Land as softly as possible (cushion the jump with your knees).

Lighten:
Lower the intensity between each execution; lower the height of the object.

Harden:
Additional weight; higher object.

Variation:
Bouncing from one side of the object to the other by jumping sideways.

Topic description

Position yourself on your knees in front of a stable raised surface (e.g. a plyo box or a Swedish box, including the top section). Move your hips backwards and lean your upper body slightly forwards, stretching your arms diagonally backwards alongside your body (like a ski jumper on the ski jump). From this position, jump forwards or upwards powerfully and explosively (using the momentum of your arms) through your hips and legs, landing on the platform with both feet simultaneously.  Cushion the landing in a controlled manner with your knees slightly bent. Then stand upright on the box and return to a squatting position in a controlled manner.

Attention:
Only use a box that is sufficiently stable and non-slip; adjust the height of the box to suit your performance level; jump explosively from a hip extension (not just from the knees); place both feet firmly on the box upon landing; do not let your knees cave inwards upon landing; cushion the landing softly and in a controlled manner; keep your core stable throughout the jump.

Lighten:
Use a smaller step; start by standing up from a raised kneeling position without jumping.

Harden:
Use a taller object; perform the jump with as little ground contact time as possible; add extra weight.
