Phase: Activities

The aim of this game is to get the hockey ball past the other teams defence over the baseline of the court. 

There will be two teams one either side of the half way line. They are not allowed to go into the other teams half. 

Both teams will start with two hockey balls each. When the coach says "go" both teams will hit/pass the hockeyballs over the other side of the court trying to get it past the baseline (end of the court) if someone succeeds in getting the ball past the baseline, that team will get a point. 

If either team stop the hockey ball they can dribbling it wherever they want in their half of the court and hit it back into space on the opposite side to try and get a point. 

If a hockeyball goes out of bounds, whatever side of the court the ball is on, that team can go retreive it & play on. 

Modifications

To make harder - add in more hockeyballs, add in the rule that they have to complete two or more passes between different people in their team before hitting it across the halfway line.
