INDOOR ACTIVITY
HISTORY
Beach volleyball is a variant of indoor volleyball, which was
invented in 1895 by William G. Morgan. Beach volleyball most
likely originated in 1915 on Waikiki Beach in Hawaii, at the
Outrigger Canoe Club.
The sport began as a form of family fun at the beach, and its
wide appeal and low cost meant it soon spread around the world.
PLAYERS
Unlike indoor volleyball, where the two competing teams field six
players each, teams in beach volleyball can only field a two players per
side on the court. There are no substitutions allowed in beach volleyball.
Defender
The defender guards the rest of the court and digs out spikes or chases
looped up shots into the open areas of the court.

OUTDOOR ACTIVITY
HISTORY
Baseball is thought to have originated as a
game called “rounders” in England and gained
popularity in the United States in the early
1900s. It has gone by many names in the past,
including “town ball,” “goal ball,” round
ball,” and simply “base”.
Pitcher- The pitcher's job is to throw the ball over to the plate in a way that it is difficult for
the batter to hit. A pitcher should be able to throw fast pitches, but velocity is less important
than control The pitcher is the fifth infielder and needs to field his or her position on bunts,
grounders, and pop ups, and back up the catcher on plays at the plate. Pitchers are often the
best all-around athletes on the team.
Catcher- handles the pitcher, keeps track of balls and strikes (the count), reminds the other
players about the number of outs, sets the defense, and backs up 1st base on every infield play.
Catchers are usually the most rugged and quickest thinking players on the team. Once base
stealing is permitted, a catcher should have a good throwing arm and the ability to get rid of
the ball very quickly.
PLAYER POSITIONS
Infield players
First base- The perfect place for a left-handed player who can catch the ball well. Strength and size are
important; a strong throwing arm is not. A first baseman needs to be able to concentrate, as he will
potentially be involved in nearly every play.
Second base- A second baseman needs to know what to do when there are runners on base (such as to
know that, if the ball is hit to him with a runner on first, to touch second base, or tag the runner, and
then throw to first.
Shortstop- This player has more ground to cover than any other player does and must be fast, quick,
agile and have a strong throwing arm. The shortstop will potentially field more ground balls, in more
off-balance positions, than any other player.
Third Base- This player should be able to charge the ball on bunts and slow grounders, and field the
ball barehanded, and be able to move side to side quickly on balls hit hard down the line or to his left in
the hole between third and short.
PLAYER POSITIONS
Outfielders
Right Fielder- Needs to be able to think-ahead. This player backs up first base on all throws from
the catcher and all bunted balls, since the catcher must be available for fielding the ball. They
backup second on any ball thrown from the left of the diamond.
Center Fielder- This will be the player that has the best combination of speed and throwing
distance. Like shortstop, they cover more 'grass' than any other player and, most likely, will catch
the most fly balls. They must backup second on all bunts and throws from the catcher.
Left Fielder- Of all outfield positions, this player can have the weakest arm, as they do not
generally throw the ball as far. They still require good fielding and catching skills and backup
third on pick-off attempts from the catcher or pitcher.
MATERIALS
The infield must be a square that is 90 feet on each side, and the outfield is the area between the two
foul lines formed by extending two sides of said square (though the dirt portion of the field that runs
well past the 90-foot base paths in all Major League parks is also commonly referred to as the infield).
