Description:

Layer 1: The game is played in 1/8 of a badminton court. Play 1 vs. 1. Start the serve in corner. The students bring the ball up, and let it bounce before they can catch it. Once it is caught by the other student, he throws it back up for the other player.

The ball has to be thrown up the height of the other player for the game to be fair. If the ball falls out of the playing space, it is a point for the other player and you restart the game in the corner.

 
 

MODIFICATIONS:

The game can be played 2 vs. 2 with quick switches for maximal individual participation. The size of the playing space is relative to the size of the students.


SAFETY:

If the ball leaves their playing area, it is important that the students don’t cross another team’s field while they are playing. Go around it, wait till they pause, or politely ask for your fall.
