Activity Description

This is a simple, low-cost version of hockey. It will cost around $20 for supplies.

Supplies Needed:

  • One Wiffle Ball (with spares in case it is stepped on)
  • Toilet Brushes (One for each player) 
  • Two six foot folding tables (Hopefully your church already has a few of these)
  • Masking tape to mark the goal line

Rules:

  • At most, have the game by 5 on 5 players, plus a goalie for each team, depending on space of area to play. This activity gets very hectic even in large areas. The smallest it works is 6 players (2 on 2 players with a goalie on either side.)
  • Set up tables at opposite ends. Put a line of masking tape on the group from the front of one table leg to the other. If the ball crosses the line, it is a goal.
  • Every player is supposed to use their toilet brush as a hockey stick, and the Wiffle ball is the puck. Players are not allowed to use their hands or feet to intentionally pass the ball.
  • Make sure to stress that no rough play is allowed, such as checking other players, swinging their sticks wildly, etc.
  • You can set the game to have timed periods or just see who scores the most goals by the end of the time to play.
  • If you have a large group, shuffle kids in and out during play, as they do in real hockey. It keeps things very exciting if the kids need to switch out every minute or two.
