Triple Shot Basketball

Setup and Equipment:

• For the teacher led demonstration chose three or four students
• The demonstration is important especially for the second shot of the three shots. (Shooting from the spot you rebound from)
• Each of the four teams has one basketball and a polyspot to designate an approximate free throw.
• Another option for this game is to use the terms "recreational" and "competitive"for different games, this allows students to choose the game that is the best match for their skills.
• In a typical Gym class four groups line up in back of the free throw line and start shooting on the teacher's signal.

Rules:

• Each Player gets three shots
• SHOT ONE: From inside the free throw line - worth three points.
• SHOT TWO: Wherever you catch the rebound from - worth two points.
• SHOT THREE: A layup - worth one point
• After turn is completed, pass the ball to the next person in the line.
• Groups add each player's points to their total.
• After two or three minutes the teacher calls the game and all of the group rotates to the next basketball hoop.
• The scoring continues at each of the four designated hoops.
• The goal is to get your team to score as many points as possible, though, as usual, the most fun wins.
