Throwing Activities 4

WEB COPY ©EVEQUE Activity : In teams of two or three, the first young athlete from each team approaches the throwing line. The remainder of the team should stand at least 2 metres behind their thrower. The coach should instruct the young athletes that they are only allowed to ‘throw’ and ‘collect’ on his or her command. The first young athlete from the first team is then instructed to ‘throw’ and the coach shouts the score achieved. The first young athlete from the next team is then instructed to ‘throw’ and this continues until all the first team members have thrown. All first team members are then instructed to ‘collect’ their implement and at this time the second team member approaches the throwing line. The above sequence continues until each team member has had three throws. The team score is calculated by totalling the points achieved by all members of the team.
