This game will need 8 cones on either side of the "tree", with a small box at the base for each team (8 players, 16 in total). A small nest of balls (different colours) away from the boxes.
The idea of the game is to place a ball on each cone all the way up the tree, thus decorating it. It is achieved by the following:
1. The 1st player runs to the nest of balls whilst the 2nd player runs to the first cone, a ball is then passed from 1st to 2nd player. The first player then follows the ball to the first cone, the second player now dribbles the ball to the top cone and leaves it there. Once the ball is placed the player is run back to their box through the middle of the tree.
2. When the 1st player starts to follow the ball passed the 3rd player now moves to the nest and repeats the first step.
3. This process is copied until each cone has a ball on it and all players have returned to the box.
