Teams of 6-8 shooting into the hoop. If the students score a goal, they get to run to the middle of the court and collect 1 cone, returning it to their group. If they miss, this have to crab walk (defensive stance) to the sideline and back, joining the back of the line. Variation: Once all the cones have been collected from the middle, students are to steal cones from the other groups, like rob the nest. Team with the most at end of time limit is the winner.
