Two teams of four players start at a cone with 4 balls per team. Four cones will be placed in a line in front of each team. The first player takes a ball and puts it down on the first cone before running back to collect a second ball and placing it next to the second cone. The same process is then repeated for the third and fourth ball. Once all balls are placed next to all the cones, the player tags the next team mate who follows the same process but this player collects all the balls, instead of placing them down. The activity continues until all team members have had a turn.
