Long towel rolled up tight the long way Taped on both ends Use this as a very safe "rope" 2 players square off, each holding rope at opposing ends 1 cone away from each player 5 yards behind They try and drag their opponent to their cone I just call it the towel game and our kids love it THe NFL guys use an expensive thing called the Tug- same deal, more $$$ Make it interesting? Divide into teams, losing team does 10 pushups or we prefer gambling, kids line up behind player they think will win, all the losers run a very fast 20 sprint and back Dave, I just made one of those towels today and I hope to use it with our kids today. I saw The Tug video and I was drooling. Naturally, I thought "There's got to be a cheaper way to do this." Thanks for the tip!

Our kids and player agents ( aka parents) favorite drill
Want to feel real sore the next day? Choose up teams and make sure you go for it vs another coach.

we are not allowed to play dodgeball.... we play "throw and catch." Stole that from Blankenship from Madera high near fresno...
The way I explain it is as so - we are trying to play catch, but if you can not catch it, make sure it does not hit you...
simple...

We've been known to play "Happy Shiny Fun Ball" on occasion, but never dodgeball. That would be uncivilized.

for those that can not play dodgeball, place a few bowling pins on each side of the gym and call it Pinball. Same rules apply but the kids are now throwing 'at the pin'.
