Procedure: All stand in a circle. One person is selected to be âIt.â âItâ dribbles around the circle, tapping each player on the shoulder and saying âduckâ on each tap. âItâ chooses 1 child to be a Goose by saying âgooseâ when tapping their shoulder. The Goose then chases âItâ around the circle. âItâ tries to dribble all around the circle and back to the Gooseâs place before being caught by the Goose. If "It" is caught (by being tapped on the shoulder): âItâ stands inside the circle, and can only be freed when another child is caught and they can then swap out. If âItâ is not caught and manages to sit in the Gooseâs spot, the goose becomes the new âIt.â Variations: The Goose can run but "It" must dribble. "It" can run but the Goose must dribble. The Goose catches "It" by tackling the ball off them.
This game is a chasing game intended for Under-8s. The aim is for one person to chase the person who is âItâ around the circle while trying not to get caught. It develops fast dribbling and reactions.
