NAME OF ACTIVITY: Fliers and Grounders GRADE LEVEL: K-12 some modifications for younger players EQUIPMENT: 1 bat, 1 ball, 1 tee if necessary per game HIGHLIGHTS: Hitting, catching, eye-hand coordination, pitching, fielding INSTRUCTIONS:
This is a game I used to play, many moons ago. 1 player is
designated as the hitter, 1 player is designated as the pitcher and the
rest of the players are scattered about the field. The first thing
that you have to do is designate how many fliers (Fly Balls) and how many
grounders (Ground Balls), it will take to win a game. Of course,
this number can be adjusted to the skill level of the participants. For
now, I will say it takes 1 flier and 5 grounders to win a game. Play
starts with the pitcher tossing the ball to the hitter, and the hitter
striking the ball. Fielders will attempt to catch the ball hit by
the batter. The first player to reach the set number of fliers and
grounders will be the winner and the next batter. You could now have
the previous batter, become the next pitcher. If a player wins more
that once before all players have batted, I will have them or myself
select a new player to hit. HELPFUL HINTS: No body contact is allowed
between players.
