Tee Cricket 8 cones 3 balls 1 wicket 12 bibs (2 different colours) 3 tees
Split the group into 2 teams of 6. One team bats first while the other fields. The first batter hits the balls one by one of the tees. The fielders are not allowed to move until the final ball has been hit. Once the final ball has been hit the batter starts to run to the orange cones and back scoring a run each time. The fielders then collect the balls and return them to where they started once that is done the batter stops running and that is the amount of runs they scored. Every player will bat before changing around. To progress it and make it harder you can allow the fielders to get the balls once they have been hit
