Skittles

  • The teacher makes 2 teams.
  • Place the cones 2 metres away from the wall.
  • If you don't have cones, you can also use blocks or the like.
  • One team stands on the left (see map) with one hand on the wall.
  • The other team will stand behind the line on the right.
  • Behind this line they are safe and cannot be touched.
  • The game begins.
  • The team on the right must try to bring as many pins as possible behind the safe line.
  • They are only allowed to bring one cone at a time and feints are allowed.
  • The left team must prevent this by tapping them.
  • As soon as a student of the left team takes his hand away from the wall, he has to tap someone of the right team before they are all behind the safe line.
  • If he fails to do so, he's out.
  • If he does tap someone from the right team, he's out of the game and he can stand with one hand against the wall again.
  • When you're out, you have to sit on the bench.
  • The game stops when all pins are in the safe area or when all players of one of the teams are finished.
  • After this, the teams swap places.
