Tag

Similar to able-bodied ‘tag’.

Instructions

One person is ‘IT’. The other players try to tag IT but can only tag if they have the ball. The rules of basketball apply that the ball may be dribbled or passed and the two push rule applies. The players need to co-ordinate their offence to tag IT successfully.
The player who successfully tags IT becomes the next IT.

Variations

Can play with more players, two people IT. Use half court or full court.
Players become IT if they donnot call the name of the player they are throwing to.
Can play with passes only, no dribbling.

Tips

Encourage teamwork.

Skills

Conditioning, passing and teamwork drill.
