Workout 4
Islands Game
Try using different sizes and shapes of ball to play this game, which develops throwing, catching, spatial awareness and movement skills.
Set out two square playing areas, each one is the players ‘island’
Using underarm throws (cannot go down when leaving the hand), take it in turns to try to land the ball in your opponents’ island
A player wins a point if they land the ball in the island, or the opponents drops an attempted catch
Throws that land outside the island are void and do not score for either player
Many variations of the game can include pairs or 2v1, overarm throws, shorter/longer distances between islands and larger items.
