January 30, 2012- Bowling Pin Knockdown

Bowling Pin Knockdown is a simple throwing/rolling game.  The students are divided into two even teams. The teams must go to their side of the gym.  They cannot cross the half court line of the basketball court.  The object is to roll or throw dodgeballs and knock over the other team's bowling pins.  Each team receives 10 bowling pins that they can set wherever they want (on their side of the gym).  You may have 1 guard per bowling pin, but not any more.  If a bowling pin gets knocked down, either by a ball, or by a student accidently knocking it over, it must stay over until the end of the game.  After one team knocks over all 10 pins on the other side the game is over. 

AGES: Kindergarten and up

MODIFICATIONS: Use different types of equipment- soft frisbees, bean bags (must be slid on the ground), etc.  Play boys vs. girls.  Allow students to only kick the balls instead of throwing or rolling.

EQUIPMENT: 20 bowling pins (or an even number of bowling pins), dodgeballs, foam frisbees, bean bags, any equipment that can be thrown or rolled or kicked and will not hurt anyone.
