PREFACE
Today we are playing the Basketball Shooting Challenge. Your goal is to make a basketball and pass it on to your teammate so everyone can make one and finish first.
SET-UP
The camp manager should have Coaches and CIT setting up basketball nets symmetrically on the court.
INSTRUCTIONS
The Camp Manager will explain the rules of the game as each team is sitting in their designated area.
This is a timed event.
Each team will have to make a basket and pass the ball to their teammates that will be waiting in line.
Small hoops will be set up for the Bumblebee and Pink Panthers.
The older campers will have the option at shooting at either the 10ft or 8ft hoops in the center and sides
The campers can take 3pt shots or can lay the ball up.
First team whose whole team makes a shot wins
Younger Group Variation (Bumblebees, Dragonflies, and Pink Panthers): Use smaller baskets and have the campers shoot a little closer then usual so the younger campers can have a higher success rate.
TEACHING TIPS
Have Coaches/CITs reinforce that they can only pass the ball off once the shooter makes the shot.
Have Coaches assist campers having difficulty
Remember, its just a game
