Bash the boulder - whole class PE game

The video tutorial introduces a fun game suitable for elementary to middle school students, requiring a large exercise ball, sports benches, tennis balls, and cones. The game involves teams trying to keep a boulder (exercise ball) away from their 'cave' by throwing 'rocks' (tennis balls) at it.
