Enhance your rounders training sessions with an exciting fielding game, perfect for teams of three or four players. To set up the game, you'll need a full rounders pitch with either rounders posts or suitable targets to act as stumps. The objective for each team is to maneuver the ball close enough to the posts to 'stump' them, which means hitting the target with the ball. However, there's a twist: players must remain stationary while holding the ball, and if the ball is dropped during play, possession switches to the opposing team. This rule adds a strategic layer to the game, encouraging players to think carefully about their movements and passes.

To increase the challenge and skill level of the game, you can introduce a 'no fielder zone'. This zone encourages players to make throws from a greater distance, thus improving their accuracy and power. Such a progression in the game not only enhances the players' fielding abilities but also keeps the game dynamic and engaging. Whether you're looking to sharpen your team's coordination, communication, or fielding skills, this rounders fielding game is an excellent addition to your training toolkit.
