Game
Play Rideshare “UberLyft”
The goal is for players to partner up to race to complete 15 “rides”
Teams of two alternate work as they choose
Teams line up shoulder to shoulder across on one line, upon go designated partner
throws 4-6# med ball (any way) to get it to or past the line 10 m away.
Accuracy will save work!
As soon as the ball lands teams race to complete the first ride to the spot their ball
landed. Each direction is considered one ride. Return trip is from that spot to where ball
lands after next throw back to the other line. If a trip requires two throws players must
ride both legs of the trip.(no walking to the ball)
Options:
Using buddy carry (on back) (Lyft version)
Using wheelbarrow walks (Uber version)
Using Prowler Push for Pre Teen/Teen groups
Note:
Mark off two parallel lines with cones or chalk to define lanes
Consider adding backstops for med ball throws to avoid too much retrieval time
