Diagram 1. Set-Up Arrangement

Set-Up

• Arrange the cones as shown above for as many groups as necessary. Each player should have partner opposite them which they will race against. The cones are 4 yrds apart from each other. The cones are numbered by the coach so the players know where to number to.
• Number 1 = Cone to players left.
• Number 2 = Cone in front of player.
• Number 3 = Cone to players right.
• Home cone = Starting cone where the players begin each bout.

Instructions

• Players compete against the player opposite them. The coach calls out a number and both players sprint out and back to the home cone (tagging the top of the cones with their hands). The first player back with both feet around the home cone wins. Different number combinations can be called out by the coach.
• In the above example: Coach calls out "1,2!"
• A2 sprints out to cone 1 first.
• A2 sprints back to the base cone.
• A2 sprints out to cone 2 (in front).
• A2 sprints back to the base cone and places a foot either side of the base cone.

Scoring

• The player who is first back earns a point for themselves. Best of 5 wins.
