Litter Basketball

paper wastebasket

Materials:
Lots of crumpled computer or copy
paper,
Trash cans

To play:
Divide the group into two teams and seat them
behind a throw line. Place the trash cans about
10 feet away (distance depends on the motor
skills of your boys). On the signal “GO!”
Cubs fire their paper
“basketballs” at the
trash can goals. After
a set amount of
time, stop the game.
Count the number
of “basketballs” in
each trash can. The
team with the most
“basketballs” in the cans wins.
