How To Play
(Watch video)
Variation:
You may use this as an elimination game to make it highly competitive and improved the speed dribble. You may want to limit players to dribbling only on their weak hand. It is a good way to send athletes for a drink to manage resources when played as a knockout game. You could also just have someone do star jumps and join back in to the game.
