Wes, Rugby Coach

DESCRIPTION

SET-UP:
Mark out one or more Bullseyes using chalk, string, hoops or other suitable markers. Mark out hitting areas and safe areas for non-hitters. Split the group into teams and spread them around the bullseyes. Place one club and some balls in each hitting area.

ACTIVITY:
Players try to get the ball close to the centre of the target. Points are scored depending on where the ball finishes.
