Flash Cards: Modified Triathlon Activity

A skills competition focusing on agility, balance, and coordination through three stages: dribbling a football, balancing an object on the head, and crawling.

To complete all stages as quickly as possible while maintaining precision in each task.

Mark a starting and ending line and create a 10-metre-long zig-zag course using cones or markers.

Balance an object on their head while returning to the starting line. If it falls, they must stop, replace it, and continue.

Participants place the object down, pick up the football, and run back, passing the ball to a teammate.

The team that finishes all turns first wins the Modified Triathlon Activity.
