Frisbee Tennis
Setup
- Teams of 2-4 players each
- Eight cones to set up an area each for two team, separated by a no-go area in between. Recommend each area being 5m long, with a width of 1.5m per player on each team, and a 2-3m long no-go area
- One disc for every two teams
Objective
- Score by throwing the disc into the opposing team’s area without them catching it
Area
- Show participants their team’s area and the no-go zone
Functions
- The frisbee is thrown across the no-go area. The opposing team must catch it and send it back
- Teams can pass it among themselves up to 3 times before throwing back to the other team
- Players must catch the frisbee on the full
- If the frisbee lands in the catching team’s area without being caught, the throwing team gets a point
- If the frisbee lands anywhere out of bounds, the catching team gets a point

CHANGE IT ideas
- Coaching: use this game to encourage communication – eg: calling for catches, coming up with a strategy
- Equipment: if you can, set up a “net” in the no-go area to throw over – eg: use two chairs and link together sashes
- Inclusion: have players rotate positions each point
