Indoor Baseball

In order to create this game, we used elements from the popular American baseball and we adjusted it in a way that completes our target which is to have a creative fun and competitive activity in Physical Education.

The targets are succeeded by building team spirit, awareness, and respect to all contesters, power, speed and acceptance of different abilities of athletes and people in general.

The game is being played by two teams A and B consisting of 12 to 15 students. Randomly we set a defense and attack team.

Inside the field we draw 5 different circles and we set our five bases in an “M” shape. 

We also set the attack space were the contesters stand in line. 

The game starts when the first pitcher throws the ball and starts to walk toward the bases in order. We have to set the defense area where the players are standing across it ready to take the ball once it hits the ground.

We also set the area of the catcher which is a player that has to take the ball in his possession from his team mates in order to put it in a bucket before they manage to get into their bases. 

Then we have to set the last base, 8 plate-cones. The offender has to pass it, pick up a cone plate and lift it up in order to gain a point.

When the catcher puts the ball in the bucket and the offensive team has a player standing outside the bases then the team loses a player. 

As soon as the offensive team loses 3 players then the teams swap roles. 

The game ends after 30 minutes pass or when one of the two teams scores 20 points
