Handball: moving circle

This is the best handball site I have visited.

Joelma

DESCRIPTION

Players make circle holding eachothers hands or fore-arms.
In the center are a number of cones.
Players push and pull so that others touch the cones.

Touching a cone means a penalty point
e.g use the letters of the word DONKEY.
Every time you touch a cone you receive a letter of the word DONKEY.
The first who has the complete word DONKEY loses the game.

Relay with blocking:

Split your group in half and line them up behind two different cones on the sideline.

On the coach's call players from both line run one at a time around the cone and back. Once they're back the next player can go.

However, to make things hard for them there are two players on the cone on the opposite side of the court who are trying to block the running players. Which group will finish first?

Tag the circle man:

Four players form a circle, hands tight.
