VBALL Game Modifications Guide

This document provides instructions for playing a modified version of volleyball called VBALL. It lists the necessary equipment which includes bats, balls, stumps, markers, powder or an alternative to create crease lines, and wicket-keeper gloves. The game is played between two teams of 6 players each on a large space like a school oval. Players can be dismissed by being caught, bowled, or hitting the ball outside the 'V' shape created by cones on the full. The document provides variations to the game and suggestions for regression to make it easier for students. It emphasizes having students umpire their own game and providing child-friendly feedback to help them improve.

Game Modifications

VBALL:
Equipment (per group):

Two bats
One ball
Two sets of stumps
10 markers
Powder to create crease lines or alternative
Wicket-keeper gloves

Adequate spacing between groups


Large space on school oval usually required

Create a V game dimension using cones as illustrated on left.


Position wickets and crease line as appropriate
The game is played between two even teams (recommended there are 6 players
per team).
Batters can be dismissed by being caught, bowled or if they hit the ball outside the
V on the full.
Fielders must position themselves outside the V or beyond the stumps at the
bowlers end.
Fielders must return the ball to the bowler only.
Rotate team roles once all batters dismissed.
Variations:

No outs but each batting pair face two overs each and every dismissal reduces
score by 5 runs.
Place a tee on the ground for the batter to hit if a wide or no-ball is delivered
Regression:

Get the bowler to bowl under-arm to increase batters success rate


Change out rule if ball hit outside V dimension.

Get the students to umpire their own game. You are a teacher not a cricket umpire
or television commentator. Scope exists to provide feedback during this combination
activity to the: batter, bowler, wicket-keeper, and fielders.
Remember to use child friendly KTPs when providing feedback to your students.
Roam around to check that all groups are engaged in the activity correctly.
