Shuttle Relay

• The goal of this relay is to have each team add up the number of laps that are run in the alloted time (2 minutes or the length of a song). Then we add them together to see how many laps were run by the entire class. To add a touch of competition you can compare the totals to those of other classes.
• The main idea is to have everyone in the class encouraging each other to do their best!
• Four teams are split in half and face their teammates at the opposite end
• On the signal the music starts and the first person on each team carries a baton runs to the other end
• Hand a baton to the person standing in line on the opposite end of the gym.
• After running your lap, go to the end of the line and rotate as turns are taken
• You may set an elapsed time of two minutes or complete an entire song.
• Variations:

• Dribble a basketball and give a bounce pass
• Carry a football and handoff
• Dribble with a hockey stick and puck
• Dribble soccer style
