Handball: Hit the Dragon's Tail

Playing inside half a court at both sides there is a coned area about 2 meters deep.

Each team must attack the other team's zone whilst defending their own.

Aim of the game :

To try and bring the ball into the 'enemy' zone and make a try.

To set this game up you need a gymnastics bench at each side of the half court and two back to back benches (or a large gymnastics box if available) laying flat inside the middle of the area.

In this middle area there should be a white player defending their side of the bench and a blue player defending their side.

The white team tries to score by hitting the ball on the blue's side of the bench and the white side tries to score on the blue's side of the central bench.

After every failed attempt to score the team who made the shot must touch one of the benches on either side of the area.

Playing inside half a court with a large mat in the center players try to press the ball onto the mat in order to score a point for their team.

After scoring the ball must be played to a player on the opposite team on the side line and then start the attack again ( quick throw off imitation).

Two equal numbered teams play against each other with normal rules.

The only additional rule is that at no stage may a team be ahead more then 1 goal. So at 1-0 the team who are ahead have to keep possession until the end of the game.

Only if the opposition scores may they try to score again.

Play this way with 5-10 minute games with regular break.
