Clear the garden game
Two teams (of any size) face each other across a hall/space.

Use a net/rope/line on the ground to separate the teams and each child has an object to throw.

On 'GO' they overarm/underarm throw their objects to the other teams area.

Get someone to shout 'stop' after three minutes.

Count to see which team has the least objects in their garden - they win.

You may only throw one object at a time, and if you throw an object out of the boundaries it counts on your teams total.

You can use chalk, cones or tape to mark out an area.

Draw a line through the centre of the area.

Each team member has a beanbag/ball and tries to hit the ball to move it to the other teams court. Only one beanbag/ball can be thrown at a time.
