Get Active: Ultimate Rock, Paper, Scissors.

Age Group: Juniors

Time: 10 Minutes

Preparation Needed: In the Cupboard

What You’ll Need:

• Cones

Getting into the Activity:

Set up your meeting space for the game by creating a line of cones with about half a metre between each one. The line doesn’t have to be straight, it can snake around the room, but it does need to have two ends to it. Split your group in half, with one team lined up (socially distanced where required) at one end of the cones and the other team lined up at the other end.

On GO, the first player from each team starts jumping (two-footed jump) from one cone to the next, until they meet the player coming from the other end. Both players should stop when there is a gap of 2 metres between each other. You may wish to agree that this is a gap of 4 cones.

When the two players meet they play a round of ‘Rock, paper, scissors’. The loser is knocked off the line and must return to the back of their team’s line. The winner carries on jumping (two-footed jump) towards the end of the line, whilst the team which lost sends their next person jumping down the line. This carries on until one team member makes their way all the way to the opposite end and scores a point. Once a point is scored, restart the game. Keep playing for your desired time and the winning team is the team with the most points at the end.

Keeping Everyone Safe

Where required, please ensure social distance is maintained. This includes in the line of children waiting to take their turn. You may wish to use markers on the floor to help with this
