Aim: This game encourages the players to bring what they have learned from the session into a scenario where they are under pressure when shooting.
It is essentially a knockout game.
Everyone lines up at the free throw line. The first two players have a basketball each.
Once the first players basketball hits the ring or backboard the second player can shoot.
If the player who shoots first scores he is safe and passes the ball to the next shooter.
If the second player scores before the first shooter, then they have knocked the first shooter out. eventually there is a last person standing.
This game can be split up into groups at multiple baskets to ensure no player is left idle for a long length of time.
