GATES
It's all about handballing and spatial awareness with Gates!
HOW TO SET UP
Create 'gates' in the playing area by using two cones of the same colour placed at the metre apart.
There should be at least one gate for every Auskick pair.
Each pair starts at different gate.
LET'S PLAY
When you say "go", each pair handballs to eachother three times, through their gate, then run to a vacant gate and perform three more handballs.
LET'S PLAY
Then repeat!
Be sure to check out the variations to gates on the " Change it Up!" page.
VARIATION 1
After a pair handballs three times, try having the player without the ball run to another gate and find a new partner. The Player with the ball stays at the gate.
Swap this rule after a while so that the player with the ball leaves their partner and finds another gate.
VARIATION 2
Players with the ballmust bounce while running to a new gate.
VARIATION 3
If you have enough different coloured cones, have a race to see which Auskickers can visit every different coloured gate.
