Netball Cross Country Orienteering

Netball Numbers - Courses

Resources:
• Netball court maps, 6 maps with sufficient copies of each map to have one per pair with a few left over.
• Each set of maps to be placed in separate box or bag.
14 cones or markers labelled with the code numbers as follows:
• 4 with number 1
• 4 with number 2
• 4 with number 3
• 2 with number 4

Answer Sheet:
Map 1 = 14, Map 2 = 15, Map 3 = 11, Map 4 = 12, Map 5 = 13 Map 6 = 10

The Session:
• The children should be in pairs
• Explain that the triangle on the map represents the start.
• Give child 1 the map of one of the courses, child 2 is responsible for adding up the total of the code numbers they find on the cones for the course they are doing.
(Map 4 – Cones values are 2+1+4+1+3+1= 12) Each child has a role either map reading or adding up.
• Give successive pairs different maps to start with, so that they don’t all follow each other.
• When a pair returns from a course with the correct answer give them the next map in the set, this time child 2 with the map and child 1 adding up. Swap roles each time they start a new course.
• Continue in this way until the time is up or everyone has completed all the maps.
