Basketball is a game that's great for both fitness and fun - in fact, you'll get fit without even noticing! And the great thing about a basketball system (also referred to as a "basketball backboard") is that you can have an almost infinite number of players. Shoot some hoops on your own, play 2-on-2, or get the whole street playing - it's a great bonding experience for the whole family.
Nothing brings a family together like facing each-other in a game of table tennis (or "ping-pong"). Suitable for almost any age, table tennis is a test of skill and focus, but there's lots of laughs along the way. A recent research paper into family bonding actually found that ping-pong was the number one way to increase family bonding, by bringing a family together and improving communication in a fun atmosphere. And it's not too stressful on the joints when grandpa wants to join in too!
Famous for Centuries in Europe as a social game for communities, these games can be played by groups of any size. So wide-spread is the game that it actually goes by different names depending on which country you're in - Bocce in Italy, Boule in France, and Petanque in Northern Europe. The rules are much the same, as is the family fun. A variation, called
Number Toss, comes originally from further north in Europe.
Family time doesn't always need to just be about fun. Working out together forms impenetrable bonds, and a very popular group exercise is the use of focus pads (where one person wears the pads, and the other person punches them with
boxing gloves). It's fun, and amazing for cardio fitness and hand-eye coordination. Try it with your loved-one soon to see what we mean!
These collapsible soccer goals can be moved around the park or your back-yard to turn any space into a fun zone! Whether it's a game of one-on-one soccer, some shooting practice, or an opportunity for a bit of competition between the extended family after Christmas lunch, a couple of soccer goals present a versatile and year-round source of family entertainment.
Nothing makes an adult feel like a kid again like jumping on a trampoline! Hours of fun, and with the higher-quality trampolines sold at Sportspower, they'll be in your back yard for years to come.
