 * // __Name/Title:__ Bucketball //**


 * // __Materials Needed:__ 3 or 4 plastic buckets (5-10 Gallon size), 20 soccerballs, whiteboard for score-keeping //**

**//__Objective/Goal:__ Develop power and accuracy with two-hand overhead throw. Explore various defensive and offensive strategies in a group game.//**

**//__Skills:__ Two-hand overhead throw//**

**//__Lesson Description:__ Divide class in half. Assign each team a side of the width of the basketball court. Students must stand behind their sideline. With feet planted, two-hand overhead throw the ball toward the buckets. Students get one point for hitting the inside bottom of a bucket (even if it's on its side), or ten points for knocking the bucket over the other team's sideline. If the bucket tips and rolls over, that is fine! Only reset the buckets if they're all clustering too close together (set them in the same position, but farther apart on the width of the court), or if one team gets the bucket over the other team's line (set it in the middle again). Students should retrieve balls from the middle of the court quickly and cautiously.//**

__**//Name/Title:GHOSTBUSTER SOCCER//**__


 * //__Materials needed -__ 1 soccer ball for each player except 8, and 8 cones//**


 * //__Objective/Goal:__ To dribble your ball and kick to strike a cone ( points can be awarded or not)//**


 * //__Skills:__//** Dribbling, kicking for accuracy, guarding, feinting


 * //__Lesson Description:__//** Scatter cones around a large outside area (or in the gym). Assign 8 students as guards to the cones ("ghosts"). On signal, other students dribble around and attempt to hit a cone with their ball. If they make and attempt and miss, or it's blocked and/or kicked away by the guard, the "ghost buster" must go to challenge another cone. Only then can she return to the previous cone. If a ghostbuster strikes a cone, they change places with that guard and the guard takes their ball.

**//__Other:__//** Do not allow guards to use their hands. Ask students the reason for this rule. Vocabulary - dribble, accuracy, guard, feinting, agility, peripheral vision
