Basic Skills For Rolling:
1) Eyes on the target.
2) Knees are bent.
3) Bring throwing arm back like pendulum.
4) Step forward with opposite foot of rolling arm.
5) Release ball low to the ground so it doesn't bounce.
6) Throwing arm follows through in motion towards target.
Materials:
- larger open space playing area (back yard)
- ball
- pylon, milk jug, cone, or marker of some kind
Game:
1) One partner is the "pitcher" and the other the "kicker".
2) Partners stand across from each other with three markers set up like below.
3) On a signal to go, pitcher ROLLS the ball to their kicker. The kicker then kicks the object and moves to touch the marker in the center and back as many times as possible. A point is scored for each touch of the cone.
4) Meanwhile, the pitcher retrieves the object and return to tag their partner. When tagged, partners change roles.
