-Equipment Link:
-Setting Up:
Designate a start line, and place a hula hoop just past the start line.
One player per team stands in the hula hoop, the other players stand behind the start line, with the front player in line holding a ball.
-Instructions:
The player with the ball tosses the ball to the player standing in the hoop.
If the player in the hoop catches the ball, this player flips the hoop over once, and gives the ball to the next player in line. The player who threw the ball steps into the hoop ready to catch the next ball.
As the game continues it becomes increasingly difficult for the player in the hoop to catch the ball while remaining standing in the hoop.
Teams try to get the hoop as far from the starting line as possible.
-Questions & Notes:
As the throwing distances increase how do players increase their likelyhood of succeeding?
