1 Basketball

4 Bases

PREFACE
Today we are playing Baseketball. Your goal is to be the winning team after 9 innings .

INSTRUCTIONS

  • I will put you into 2 teams.

  • We’ll play ro-sham-bo to see which team gets to shoot first.

  • When I say go, the first person will come up and shoot one of these 4 shots: Free Throw, Top of the Key, Elbow, and Half Court:

    • Free Throw= Single

    • Top of the key= Double

    • Elbow= Triple

    • Half Court= Home Run

  • If you make your shot you go to that base.

  • If your shot does not go in, that counts as an out, you must go to the back of the line, and the next person comes up to shoot.

  • If someone is on base, and your teammate misses the shot, the other team has a chance to tip the ball in for a double play.

  • Teams will switch after three outs or after a team has scored five runs.

  • All GrowFit baseball rules apply.

  • After the game is over, we will begin a new game.

 

Younger Group Variation (Bumblebees, Dragonflies, and Pink Panthers): Consider moving the spots the campers are shooting from closer to the basket for a higher success rate as well as have a coach or CIT walk campers to through the bases if they don’t understand where to go.
