One Goal

Learning Outcomes

Passing and striking with a long implement (hockey stick), intercepting or tackling space awareness, and relationships (with others).

Description Of Activity

Each team is given one side of the goal to score from. One team starts with the ball on its side at a distance from the goal and attempts to score. If the other team intercepts/tackles successfully, its players work together and move the ball around to their side to try to score. After a goal is scored, the non-scoring team restarts from its side.
