Many thanks. This resource has helped me a lot, as a coach and as...
Lucy, USA

DESCRIPTION

In a circle there is a ball.
The trainer appoints a player as the guard of the ball.
Other players do not know who this guard is.
Another player must try to rob the coconut.
The guard (monkey) may only start running when the other player touches the ball.
Appoint a new guard every time.

Variations :
- more balls
- more guards
- more robbers
