Square Game:
-
In pairs, get one boucy ball and four cones. Set up cones in a square.
-
One partner bounces ball in the middle of the square and the other partner
recieves it somehwere on the outside of the square.
-
Can only bounce one time
-
Movement happens all around the outside of the square.
Teaching Points:
-
Encourage partners to challenge each other and use different angles
to bounce the ball. This will encourage the lateral movement that
is important in setting up for a backhand, as well as good general movement
on the badminton court.
-
Can be used as an easy warm-up at first, and then can become more
competitive as the students get warm.
