All Campers

PREFACE
We want to welcome kids to Camp with energy and excitement! The object of the game is to get them to work together and pass a ball all the way down the line from beginning to end before the other team does.

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Campers will be divided into two even groups.

  • One group will be placed in a straight line along the glass and the other on the opposing side on the white boards.

  • The first person in line will start passing the ball on your signal. Don’t skip anyone or throw it!

  • If the ball drops, the camper that drops the ball will have to run it back to the first person in line.

  • Once the last person in line receives the ball they must run it all the way back to the first person in line in order to finish!

 

Variation: Have the campers arrange the tunnel from shortest to tallest.
Variation: Get it all the way down then all the way up the line.

 

TEACHING TIPS

  • Split the teams into an equal mix of all groups.

  • Remind campers that everyone is of different skill level and age so be supportive.

  • Dropping the ball or losing is no big deal! We are here to have fun and play.
