DISTANCE THROW

Setup

  • Cones set out in a straight line
  • Consider wind direction if outside – have the players throw with the wind if there is room

Objective

  • Players take turns with a partner to attempt to throw the frisbee is far as they can.

Area

Functions

  • Have pairs of players line up together behind the line of cones
  • Each player that is holding a disc stands in front
  • The coach calls ‘3, 2, 1, throw!’ and all players holding a frisbee throw as far as they can, at the same time
  • Once all players have thrown their frisbee, the coach calls ‘collect the frisbees!’ and the players can come to collect their frisbee and give it to their partner.

Safety

  • Ensure all players throw at the same time
  • Wait until all players have thrown before allowing any player to collect their frisbee

CHANGE IT ideas

  • Coaching: use role models or demonstrations
  • How to score: the coach can mark the current “leader” with a cone
  • Game rules: vary the type of throw
