3. Fill it up Bucket Ball
On the whistle, the instructor scatters balls from his/her bucket in all directions. The participants aim is to collect the balls as fast as possible (2 at a time), and to keep the bucket filled. After a set period (1 or 2 minutes), the participants must have returned all the balls to the bucket, or the instructor ‘wins’.

4. Flip the Cones
Two teams compete to see who can flip the most cones to their team's assigned position. One team must flip cones right-side-up, while the other team must flip the cones upside-down. The team with the most cones in their position when the time period (2 or 3 minutes) elapses is the winner. Encourage participants to use two hands to replicate proper fielding technique.

6. Relay Races
Participants are split into a number of even teams, and compete in relay races back-and-forth along the length of an imaginary pitch. Relays should begin as basic running races, and increase in difficulty as the activity goes on. Incorporate wickets, bats and other cricket elements to more closely resemble the sport.
