PE Activity #9 - "Kickball Dodgeball"
Enjoy this hugely popular PE activity! Kickball Dodgeball is a modern take on the classic kickball game that your students will love!
OVERVIEW
Excellent activity to evaluate motor skills
Similar to baseball
Develops multiple skills
Requires kicking, throwing & running
Extremely fun!
EQUIPMENT & SETUP
Baseball setup with home-base & 3 hoops/ bases
Can use basketball court (2 is better!)
INSTRUCTIONS
Two teams, one spreads out in the area (fielders) and the other behind hoop 1 (kickers/runners)
The PE teacher bowls the ball underarm to the kicker, they kick the ball between bases 2 and 4 and try to run to base 1, 2, 3 or 4 before the fielding team gets the ball back to the PE teacher (play stops) or runs out the kicking player
The kicking/running player needs to try and get back to hoop 1 for a home run point
They are out if the fielding team throws the ball at them (dodgeball-style) or runs them out
Maximum 1 kicker/runner in a hoop at one time
Repeat until all the kickers/runners are out or have run to base 1 for a point
Swap teams and repeat 1-3 times
CHANGES
Easier = smaller distance
Harder = kickers can be caught out
