The perfect physical game for large groups

Tired of the same team physical education games? Power Ball offers a fresh challenge that boosts cardiovascular capacity and fosters teamwork. With minimal preparation time needed, this dynamic game can be played both indoors and outdoors. Discover how to play below.

Description

The power team will try to avoid their ball to get hit by the other team’s ball.

Objective

The objective of Power Ball is to enhance participants’ eye-hand coordination, cardiovascular capacity, and teamwork. This physical education activity engages players in dynamic movements and strategic collaboration.

How the PE game is played

Separate the playing area into 3 zones and divide the group into 6 teams, each with colored bibs. In each zone, place 2 teams. One will be the Power team and the other, the team that wants to steal the power.

The objective of the Power team is to pass the ball to each other without their ball getting hit by the other team’s ball.

When the Power team’s ball gets hit, the teams switch roles. At the end of the time set for the round, the team that has the power wins.

When participants have a ball in their hands, they are not allowed to move and the team seeking for the power must hit the ball and not the ball carrier of the power team.

Adaptations/variations of the PE game

  • The participants can hit the ball carrier to provoke role-changing
  • If the power team drops the ball, a role change is happening

Specific safety rules

Forbid intentionally throwing the ball in the face.
