Set up

A square about twenty by fifteen metres. One ball between four players.

How it works

Taggers dribble a ball and chase. Touch a runner with your ball to swap roles.

  • Tag with the ball, not your hand.
  • Stay inside the square.

Say this

"Ball close""Head up""Fast feet"

Too easy?

Add a tagger, shrink the square.

Too hard?

Runners jog only.

Organising it

17 m sided area per group. With 14 kids: one group. With 20 kids: one group. Runs with one coach.
