Bench Dodgeball

· , , , , , , ,


Grade level: 4-8
Equipment: benches, dodgeballs
Game Description: It’s the classic game of bench dodgeball, at least I think it’s a classic. It might just be classic for me? Note: this game is different from BENCHBALL (where you try to get all players onto the bench – that’s not a dodgeball game, though it’s also a really good game). In this game, you try to help your players get OFF the bench. Mrs. Gracie at my school really likes to play this game when I’m away. The kids really like it and of course, it works on lots of skills!

2 Ball

Grade level: 4-8
Equipment: cones, 2 soft balls, jerseys
Game Description: Here is Steve Mercado’s next game idea. It’s simply an amazing game. After playing, creating, and sharing games for MANY years, I think this might even be the best all-around game of them all. Involves lots of different skills, strategies, movement, teamwork, and more. You need to try this game, you’ll be happy you did. Thanks Steve!

Grade level: 3-8
Equipment: balls, hula hoops, cones
Game Description: Another winning idea from Deric Hafer. As a variation to the original Castleball game (one of the best games there is) the modifications in this game make for another super fun, skill-building, and action-packed game. Set-up the castles, choose the roles, launch the cannon balls, and build together. There’s something for everyone!

There are actually 3 ways to play, each with a varying level of difficulty. Start by asking your players to explain what cooperation means. And they will soon realize that if they work together, they will accomplish the task quickly and effectively!
