High five:

SET-UP:
Three zones are marked up a wall numbered one, three and five. Mark out hitting areas and safe areas for non-hitters. Split the group into teams. Place one iron and some balls in each hitting area.

ACTIVITY:
Players take it in turn to hit a ball towards the wall. The aim is to get the ball as high up the wall as possible and the ultimate is to hit the 'high five' zone. After a shot the player returns to the safe area. When the teams have hit all their balls, the clubs are put down so that the balls can be collected safely.
