CrossFit Kids - Play Day

Get a group of friends together and play CrossFit Dodge Ball!
From CrossFit Kids Magazine - August 2006

CrossFit Dodgeball Variant   Equipment:
Rope
2-6 differently colored soft dodgeballs
Divide the playing are into two halves with the rope. Divide the class into two teams.
Assign each of the balls a different exercise. (Red Ball = Push ups, Blue Ball Squats, Orange Ball = sit ups etc..)

Play:
In regular CrossFit Dodgeball when someone is hit by a ball they have to do a certain number of reps of an exercise and then they get to rejoin the game. This game is played just like regular CrossFit Dodgeball except in this case, each ball carries its own unique exercise. For example, if you get hit by the Blue ball you have to do five pull ups before rejoining the game. Getting hit by the Red ball requires 10 push ups. Be creative with the exercises, jumping air squats, burpees, box jumps, wall ball, Slam Ball, L sits and floor tuck-ups are great. If the ball is caught the thrower has to do DOUBLE the reps of the normal penalty before reentering play. Make the reps and exercises appropriate for the age and ability of the players.

Have fun.
