PREFACE
Today we are playing The Flash Team Relay. Your goal is to work together finish obstacle course.

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Each team will line up in order to go through the course, only 1 person at a time

  • When I blow the whistle, the first person in line will start running

    • First run through the ladder 1 step at a time - no skipping squares

    • Put their forehead on the baseball bat’s handle and spin 3 full circles while counting out loud

    • Run across the balance beam

    • Kick the soccer ball into the goal

    • Hop across the Hopscotch section touching every dot

    • Weave through the cone line

    • Run straight back to their team and high-five the next person in

  • First team to get through the obstacle course and sit down wins.

 

Younger Group Variation (Bumblebees, Dragonflies, and Pink Panthers): Consider having less obstacles to make it a little more easier for the and shortening the length of the of the course.

TEACHING TIPS

  • Have coaches/CITs make sure they are doing the course correctly. If they fall off or mess up they must re-do it before continuing.

    • All contestants must be in their line and wait for a high-five before going

  • Depending on time constraints take out portions of the course.
