Description Of Activity
- To start one player is selected as the Crocodile and stands in the central coned area (The River).
- All remaining players have a ball each and start on an end line.
- The aim of the game is to cross the river, protecting your ball, and keeping possession without being tackled by the crocodile.
- When a player is tackled and their ball has been kicked out of the area, they stand outside of the area.
- The winner is the last player with a ball.
- Continuous practice, end to end.
