THIS VIDEO WILL TEACH YOU HOW TO PLAY SQUOCKEY
A team game in a gym. Split the group into two teams.
SAFETY POINTS: Racquets must remain on the floor for this game, and the ball must roll across the floor to count as a goal. It can get dangerous if the ball is tossed around in the air and racquets are swinging.
EQUIPMENT:
- Racquets used as hockey sticks.
- Mini squash ball
- Net for Goals
RULES OF THE GAME:
- Split the group into two teams.
- A mix of squash and hockey!! Set up two nets as goals at each end of the playing area.
- Players must use their racquets to dribble, hit the ball, and score a goal.
- The first player to achieve 11 goals wins!!!
VARIATION: Players must stay on one side of the gym and shoot past their opponent to strike the wall behind them to score a goal. They lose a goal if they cross the line.
REPEAT THIS GAME AT THE END OF THE SESSION, IF YOU HAVE TIME. Give the group an incentive to focus: if they do, they can play the fun game again at the end!
