Layer 1:
- Each player will be paired up
- They will be in a designated area (badminton court)
- One player will start with the ball and will serve it to his partner over the net
- The goal is to maintain the rally so it has to be an easy serve
- The other player will let the ball bounce once and then catch it to send it back
Layer 2:
- The goal is now to score a point
- In order to score a point players have to send the ball inside of the circles made by the tape (6 circles per side)
- If the ball is sent outside of the court it’s a turnover
- No smash allowed
- When all of the circles have been hit, the team wins
Layer 3:

- Use the whole court
MODIFICATIONS:
- Smashes are allowed
- If it is too easy, use smaller circles
SAFETY
