STORYLINE
Today we are playing HULK SMASH! Your goal is to throw at the opposing team's city and to try and knock down all the houses and buildings.    

INSTRUCTIONS

  • I will divide the group into two teams.

  • When I say, “GO!” try and throw fuzzy balls at the opposing team’s buildings and houses.

  • You may not go past the mid line cones or the cones surrounding your buildings.

  • If you get hit from the shoulders and below, you must run a lap around the boundary cones before rejoining your team.

  • You may only have one fuzzy ball in your hand at a time and cannot block shots with the fuzzy balls.

  • Teams get one point if they knock down the opposing team’s building (hula-house). Five points if they knock down a building and a house (cone and the hula-house), and 10 points if they knock down just a house (cone).

  • We will begin a new round when a whole city is destroyed.

 

TEACHING TIPS

  • If a camper does not want to play the game, consider designating him/her as the ball master, where he/she can rescue the balls that go out-of-bounds.

  • Remind campers to make sure there is no one directly in front of them when they are throwing.

  • Remind campers about honesty and sportsmanship during counting and camp overall
