GamePlay DiscBonk Set
DiscBonk is a game of teamwork as players try to keep their ball and the disc from hitting the ground during constant aiming, throwing, and catching action. Players attempt to "bonk" the other team's pole with a disc, causing the ball on top to drop during these flying disc games. If players miss catching their ball and/or disc, points are scored! Both indoor and outdoor ABS poles adjust to 40", 50", or 60"H to accommodate all ages. It’s a fan-favorite among target lawn games!
Easy to Customize and Play
This is a great game for players of all ages, thanks much in part to the scalable difficulty of its setup. Position the poles as close or as far apart as you need. Easily raise or lower the poles to 40", 50", or 60"H depending on the age and ability of players.
To start, place poles with a desired distance between them. Set a ball on each concave pole topper. Play with two teams of two players, with a member of each team standing by pole. One teammate throws the disc at the opposing pole, trying to knock the ball off to earn a point. At the same time, the defensive player attempts to catch the disc to earn a point. If the player drops the disc, the throwing team earns a point.
Quality Equipment
ABS poles stand up to impact from constant hits by incoming discs. Choose an indoor or outdoor pole set to maximize your playing space effectively. Outdoor poles stake directly into the ground, while indoor sets come with an ABS plastic base that prevents accidental tipping.
Sets come with 2 pole sets, 6 AirRanger Plastic Discs, 6 yellow plastic balls, and activity instructions with several game ideas and options. The indoor set also includes square bases, while the outdoor set includes ground stakes.
15 Dynamic Activity Ideas Using the DiscBonk Set!
The DiscBonk Set is a unique, action-packed disc game that challenges players to throw flying discs and knock a ball off a target post without hitting the post itself. What sets it apart is its lightweight, collapsible design, portability, and the unpredictable movement that occurs when the ball is struck. The instant feedback from each disc throw makes it a fantastic tool for developing precision, timing, coordination, and strategic movement in PE. These 15 inventive activity ideas use the DiscBonk Set to teach a wide variety of fundamental movement skills in fun, engaging, and group-friendly formats for students of all ages.
1. DiscBonk Dodge Drop: One team guards their pole while the other throws to knock the ball off. Students practice throwing, dodging, and stopping in this fast-paced aiming game.
2. Spin & Send: Before throwing, students complete a 360-degree turn to challenge balance and directional awareness, then aim for the DiscBonk ball—working on twisting and throwing.
3. Target Trek Toss: Students run or skip through a cone maze using Rainbow Vinyl Cone Set, reach a throwing line, then aim for the target—developing agility and throwing.
4. Disc Duel Drop: Two students race to throw their disc first and knock the ball off—develops power movements and competitive focus.
5. Leap & Launch Bonk: Students leap over an obstacle, land, and then toss a disc to knock off the ball. Teaches leaping, landing, and target accuracy.
6. Cross-Step Bonk: Players use galloping or sliding movement to approach the throw line. Helps develop lateral coordination before performing an accurate toss.
7. Catch & Counter Bonk: Two teams alternate throws. If one team knocks the ball off, the other must catch the disc rebound to cancel the point—teaches catching and reaction time.
8. Disco Inferno Run: In relay format, students run a short distance, throw the disc, then return. Encourages quick movement and throwing under fatigue.
9. Quick Draw DiscBonk: Students stand back-to-back, turn on cue, and try to be the first to knock off the ball—training reaction speed and throwing accuracy.
10. Underhand Bonk Bounce: Use only underhand throws to knock off the ball—teaches controlled manipulation and trajectory adjustment.
11. Behind-the-Back Bonk: A fun challenge that forces students to throw behind their back. Builds body awareness and creative control.
12. Pyramid Points Play: Set up multiple DiscBonk targets at different distances. Farther targets earn more points. Develops power, accuracy, and decision-making.
13. Spin It to Win It: Add a spinning wheel with challenges like “One-leg throw,” “Jump then toss,” or “Eyes closed.” Adds surprise while reinforcing movement variations.
14. Tic-Tac-Bonk: Set up 3 targets in a row. Students must knock off balls in a pattern (like tic-tac-toe). Combines strategy and target accuracy.
15. Disc Tag Bonanza: Students must avoid being tagged by flying discs (aimed below waist). When tagged, they join the throwers—encourages dodging and agility.
