Sunday
Jan 27 & Wednesday Jan 30th: Balloon Shoot
& Knock-out games!
Last week members of the JOAD and SOAD programs scored and earned rank and pins, and awards will be presented on Sunday (everyone did GREAT!)
This week, we will have the balloon shoot game along with the "knock-out" game. Everyone, please stretch out, get your gear set up and select 1 balloon to blow up and put in the big bag with your symbol or initial.
We will have a few warm up rounds of knock-out and start the games.
Knock-Out:
Strategy and skill as a warm up game... 3 arrows.First round: Eight and better are kept and scored arrows are kept to shoot for the next round.Next round "9" and better are kept (arrows are getting down to one or two in a quiver )Down to Gold!!!(with what's left in your quiver; usually only one or two competitors are still standing)(those Knocked-out, may begin practice for the balloon games, or scoring)
Balloon
Shoot:
The idea is shoot
YOUR balloon first, before your competitor pops theirs.
They then step off,
and you shoot for theirs.
If you shoot theirs first accidentally-they win and
they move to the next round.
You will be out a round, but can restart
shooting, independent of the game,with others to create an underlying
game.
Strategy is important.Timing is important.
Use the skills we've
trained for in these games
4
tournament opportunities coming up.
Participation in any of
these is a great experience.
