4. Set a circular target on the ground at the first 25 foot line. The target can be a circle made of string or tape with a diameter of 5-12 feet.
5. Each participant throws to the target. The target represents the area
near the victim that the thrower would be aiming for in a rescue scenario. Remember, the goal is to throw the Rescue Training Stick
near the person in distress, not
at the person.
6. After the Rescue Training Stick has been successfully thrown into the target, move the target further back to the next 25 foot marker. If time permits, allow each participant 2 - 3 throws at each distance.
7. The drill can be run as a competition with participants being eliminated as they fail to reach the target at increasing distances. The winning participant will be the person who hits the target at the furthest distance.
Another option is to divide the group into two teams and award points for the number of targets hit by each team.
