DANNY Hey, I'm Danny and welcome to Let's Do This, where we will get active together.

This activity is called reaction roll.

This activity really focuses on our timing, speed and teamwork.

You will need a partner and a ball.

You will need a partner for this game, so I'm delighted to have Lily with me to give me a helping hand.

Step one.

Player one sits or stands with the ball. Player two stands in front of player

Player two stands in front of player one with their feet apart and facing away from them.

Step two.

Player one rolls the ball forwards either through player two's legs, or passed their side.

Step three.

Player two has to react quickly and catch the ball as it goes past.

Step four.

Both players turn to face the opposite direction and player two rolls the ball for player one to catch.

Now, let's do this.

NARRATOR Too tough?

DANNY Finding it a bit difficult?

Try using a larger ball, which is easier to catch.

You could also decrease the distance between partners so player one doesn't have to roll the ball as far.

Give it a try.

NARRATOR Go up a notch?

DANNY Want to challenge yourself and your partner?

Player one can try kicking the ball instead of rolling.

Or you could increase the distance between both players so it's trickier for player one to aim the ball.

This will test player one's aim and accuracy, and player two's timing and speed.

Great effort.

Now you give it a try.

NARRATOR Danny’s challenge

DANNY Ask someone to set a timer for 30 seconds and keep count of how many times you and your partner can pass and catch, or stop the ball?

Let's try and get those reactions racing and set yourself some high scores.

Get a pencil and paper and record your score.

How many will you be able to get?

NARRATOR Final thoughts

DANNY Reaction roll is a great way for you and your partner to work as a team and really test out agility and reactions.
