Rapid Fire
Multiple soft foam balls, one set of targets per team at each end of the gym
How to play
Divide the class into two equal teams lining up at opposite ends of the gym facing their own targets. Targets are arranged at the opposite end from the throwing line, such as cones set up along the back wall. On the signal, both teams simultaneously throw balls at the targets on their side. Players retrieve missed balls and continue throwing as fast as possible. After a set time limit, count how many targets each team has knocked down. Reset and play again to see if teams can improve their score.
Variations
Award different points for targets at different distances. Have a fielding team try to intercept throws before they hit the targets.
