Coaching Pointers:
Divide your group into two teams. Each player as a ball. The object of the game is for each team to make a letter. On the coach’s command, the first player dribbles their ball and leaves the ball. The remainder of the team has to complete the letter by leaving their ball and help make the letter. 

Coach can pick the letter or leave it up to the team to decide. Coach can award a bonus point if team can name an animal, country, cartoon character which start with that letter.
