Get set up

Gather the required materials: Paper and marked landing zones. Set them out before explaining the first round.

LET’S PLAY

Here’s how it works.

  1. Give each player one sheet of paper and time to fold a simple plane.
  2. Mark one or more landing zones.
  3. Stand behind a throw line.
  4. Give each player three throws or one minute.
  5. Add points for landings in each zone.

A few ground rules

Keep the agreed turn order, boundaries and timing consistent for everyone. Players may pass or use an accessibility adaptation without penalty.

Mix it up

Use one target box, distance zones or team totals.

Make it a great round

Throw only toward an empty designated area.

Keep everyone comfortable

Use clean, stable, age-appropriate materials and remove anything sharp, breakable or unsuitable for the youngest player.
