Idea 1 · 15 to 20 minutes

Pass through the gates

What you need: Cones and one ball per pair.

Ask a coach to set out pairs of cones with space between each pair of players.
Players pass a ball through a gate to their partner, then find another gate.
Let pairs choose a wider gate or a shorter pass. Finish by sharing what helped the passes reach a teammate.

Idea 2 · 20 to 30 minutes

What you need: Balls, cones and bibs.

Give each small team a few pieces of gear and a clear playing area.
Ask them to make a game where everyone has a part. The coach checks the rules and space before play.
Let another team try the game, then ask what would make it easier for a new player to join.

Choose and adapt activities with your camp's leader. Check the space, ages, access needs and supervision before you begin.
