- 20x20 grid and then make 4 square areas (islands) at each corner 2 yds x 2 yds. (larger area if we have more players) (larger islands as well) or add islands at the half way point if need be.
- start with just the coach as the pirate the progress to players as the pirates (have 2 pirates in the middle)
- Have players dribble to other islands without being caught
- to start when the coach is the pirate if a player gets caught have them complete toe taps/tik toks to get back in the game as island hoppers.
- Progress to players being pirates - If a pirate tags a island hopper they then become pirates as well.
_ some players may not want to try and leave the island that's OK encourage them though.
