ULTIMATE FLAG FOOTBALL -
Arrange the players into three grids with different colored rip flag belts . * Use a nerf or regulation football according to their ability level . Divide the three grids equally between even or uneven numbers . * Place traffic cones between each grid and designate a scoring line , which will be the sideline areas on each side of the basketball court or outside field area. * Modify the rules to make the game easier to understand and allow for more success in performance levels . * The football may be thrown in any direction . * Any football that drops to the ground results in loss of possession . *Start the new possession from that point. * There is no running allowed until the third consecutive successful throw and catch *Rip tags may be taken off only after that task . * * The one exception occurs with an interception * After three passes , a score is counted with a run past the side line or another pass to a team mate that is over the end line. * Each change of possession is a kick along the ground that is picked by the opposition .* That first player must maintain a stationary position until the first throw has been made. Establish a three foot safety zone after each catch * Limit the throw to a three second count. * Even thought there are no set positions , it is appropriate to institute the defense into a “mirroring” technique for more movement and participation and make sure the offensive players move in various pass patterns to break free for a completed pass . * Before any game is played , it is important to practice the lead up skills intrinsic to the game |
