Golf: Building Bridges.

What a fantastic tool. I 've found a few drills that are unfamiliar,...

Wes, Rugby Coach

the next player. As many as five or six players per team.

Bowls:

SET-UP:
Use either a yellow ball or brightly coloured tee as the 'Jack'
Split the group into teams of 4
Each team needs a putter and 1 ball per player each team needs to mark their balls to tell them apart from the opposition.

ACTIVITY:
Players putt their balls alternately in teams of 4. All balls nearest to the 'jack' scores points for the team. First to 21 is the winner

Time Keeper:

SET-UP:
Mark out several 'clockfaces' using cones, paper or other suitable markers. Place a target (cone, bean bag, golf hole etc) at the centre of each 'clockface'. Split the group into teams and send each team to a 'clockface'. Teams stand at 'one o'clock' in a line. Give each team one club and give each player one ball.

ACTIVITY:
The first player putts the ball towards the target. If they hit the target they move onto 2 o'clock but if they miss they stay at 1 o'clock and join the back of the line
The second player putts, then the third, and so on. Players cannot move round until they have hit the target. The first player who makes it round to 12 o'clock wins

Putting challenge:

Each team is divided into pairs and each pair begins
play on a different hole on the putting course.

Players play alternate shots in their pair until they
have finished their hole (i.e. the ball has been played
from the tee to the hole/hoop).

The number of shots taken is recorded for the hole
before they rotate clockwise on to the next hole.

This is repeated until all pairs have completed all
holes.

The total number of shots taken for each pair is
then recorded on each scorecard.

The total number of shots taken for all pairs is the
total score for the team.

The team with the lowest score of all is the winner.
