Clear the yard

Aim: To try different ways of throwing to keep the yard clear from the other team's throws. 

Players work in teams to throw soft objects back and forth into each other's yards. Players must not throw objects at each other.  Players may only throw one object at a time to keep their yard clear. The game goes on for one minute and the team with the fewest objects on their side wins. 

This game uses agility and spatial awareness to move across the yard quickly and collect an object to throw. Players are encouraged to try both underarm and overarm throws and also to make sure they look at where they are throwing their object.
