Batting practice 3 bats 6 cone 3 balls 3 wickets 12 bibs (3 different colours)
Get the players to split into groups. While in groups there will be one player that will bat while the other players field. The batter hits the ball from the tee aiming to get the ball between the set of cones. The fielders will then stop the ball and pass it back to the batter who has a set amount of goes before swapping with a fielder. It can be progressed into a game situation where each player has 5 goes and which team gets the most amount of balls through the cones wins.
