SWAB THE DECKS; RING THE BUCKET

This lesson plan and diagram is for a large group physical education class game called "Buccaneer Brigade". It is a fast paced, high energy throwing, catching and gathering game. Buccanners attempt to navigate through the other team's ocean to take shots at "downing their ship". If you can ring a bucket, it counts as a shot to the ship....but it is not easy! 

The students love this game and ask for it weekly! They will leave the gym with smiles on their faces and will be dripping sweat from all of their movement. The game requires some soft balls, a few buckets and some scrimmage vests. Buccaneer Brigade can be played indoors or out.
