Global Goal 3: Good Health & Well-being
by Becca Todd, United Kingdom
Description
The balls represents illness, diseases or problems. The distance from one cone to the other represents the life of a person. The player running across the pitch is representing travelling through life.
One player has to run from one cone to the other. The one player running needs to avoid the balls to safely reach the end.
The other players line up and kick the ball at a good (but safe) pace trying to hit the legs of the player running through.
