Go for the Goal

Submitted by: Daniel K. Drummond 

School, or Affiliation: Teacher and Coach, Seymour Community Schools 

Equipment: four to six frisbees 

Desciption:

Class is divided into two teams. Team #1 stays on one half-court and the other team uses the other half-court. The object of the game is to throw the frisbees and try to hit the basketball backboard. Points are scored depending on what happens. Points are as follows:

• 1 point - backboard hit outside the small square
• 2 points - backboard hit inside the small square
• 4 points - basket made off backboard[not easy]
• 6 points - frisbee goes directly into basket [very hard to do]

Author Discussion:

You can set your own points to win. I usually use 50 as the winning score unless the class is having a hard time then I use 20 as the winning score. This is an original game I made up. My classes like a lot.
