PART 4: GAME ACTIVITY (5 mins):

Activity Teaching Hints
Flag Dribble Blow the whistle when a player is eliminated.
Supplies : A junior basketball and a flag for each
player.
Skill: Dribbling
The object is to eliminate other players and avoid
being eliminated. Players are eliminated if they
lose control of the ball, if their flag is pulled, or if
they go out of bounds. Keeping control of the ball
by dribbling is interpreted to mean continuous
dribbling without missing a bounce. A double
dribble (both hands) is regarded as a loss of
control.

Start the game with players scattered around the

area near the sidelines. Each has a ball, and all the
flags tucked in the back of their belts. On signal,
all players begin to dribble in the area. While
keeping control of the dribble and staying in
bounds , they attempt to pull a flag from any
other player’s back. When players lose control,

they move to the perimeter of the area and

practice their dribbling skills. As soon as the game
is down to a few players, start the game over.
Sometimes two players lose control of their
basketball at the same time. In this case, both are
eliminated.

Variations:
1. If using flags is impractical, the game can
be played without this feature. The
objective then becomes to knock aside or
deflect the other basketballs while
retaining control of one’s own ball.
2. Flag Dribble can be played with teams or
squads. In this case, each squad or team is
clearly marked.
