Phase: Activities

Students will still work in the same pair for this activity and will throw from their spots. Set up cones in the shape of circles/rings roughly 20-40metre away depending on age of students (identical to a darts board bullseye - with the centre point being worth the most amount of points) creating a target for students to aim for. The exact same process will be used with the coach counting down from 3, students retrieving discs after the whistle has blown and sharing/taking turns. Depending on how many rings have been set up and the values for each zone, students will keep track of their points based on what zone their disc landed in (ensure zones are big enough - depending on age of students, roughly 4-6 rings of cones to create a sufficient amount of zones, use laminated cards that have numbers on them and place in zones to indicate values) and tally them up at the end to see who has the highest score. 

PROGRESSION: 

- If there is not enough cones to make rings/circles, instead you can place objects for students to try and hit (spots, cones etc)
- Move the spots further away from the target for students that are excelling with their throwing.
