6.8.1.3 Skipping Relay

4

Start

Finish

Activity : The start and finish of this type of relay is the halfway point between the two cones. Waiting team members sit on their team mat to the side of their lane. A complete lap is the distance from the start / finish line to the first cone followed by the full length of the course to the return cone and back to the start / finish line. The first runner stands behind the start line facing the numbered cone. On the whistle, the first runner completes one lap skipping continuously. The take-over is by passing the skipping rope to the next team member. After exchanging the skipping rope the runner sits on the team mat and the last runner finishes the relay by crossing the start / finish line at the end of his or her lap. WEB COPY ©EVEQUE
