Phase: Warm Up

The game starts off with students in a coned square. There are two types of players in this game; cops and robbers. The cops dribble their ball (using the correct grip technique and body position – haka) while the robbers try and tackle them and take their ball for themselves. When this happens the players swap roles; the robber now becomes the cop and the cop becomes the robber. Start off with only a few robbers and this can be increased during the activity to make it harder, by removing more hockey balls from the game.
