Thirty-one
! Form groups of 2 people per basket
Each group receives three cards. The cards are shuffled beforehand and the numbers 2 to 5 are taken from the packet. With the three cards they receive, the groups must get as close as possible to 31. The values of the numbers and pictures are shown below:
- Six = six
- Seven = seven
- Eight = eight
- Nine = nine
- Ten is ten
- Farmer = ten
- Wife = ten
- King = ten
- Ace = eleven
So nine + jack + queen = 29 points or ace + jack + queen = 31, but you can also get jack + jack = 30.5
When the players have completed a series, they may exchange one of their received cards for a new one, to get closer to 31. The trainer sets a timer and says stop when it rings. The team that is closest to 31 wins.
Series:
- Pass balls: three goals in a row.
- Short chance: four goals in total.
- Distance shot behind the basket: two goals in a row (4/5 meters).
- Penalty throw: three goals in a row.
- Around the basket: four goals, one on each side of the basket (3 metres).
