  • Players stand in a large circle.
  • The ball must always be passed to the neighbor.
  • The direction of passing can be clockwise or counterclockwise.
  • More and more balls are added.
  • When the ball hits the ground, players must walk to the edge of the field and back again before being allowed to continue.

Setup:
X number of baskets.

Variant 1:
Have the little players use the dice to determine how many shots/chances to score at each basket.
They may dribble with the ball to the other basket.

Variant 2:
Different types of chances.
With 1 hand, penalty throw, through ball while running with the ball.
  • One player starts under the basket with a ball.
  • The rest of the team stands around the basket at shot distance.
  • The playmaker throws to someone, who tries to score.
  • The playmaker catches/ fetches the ball.
  • If scored, the scoring person becomes the playmaker.
  • After each shot, another random player gets the ball and tries to score.
