Colorful wristbands are easy to spot as players move around the court or field. At 3”W, they offer an affordable option that doesn’t restrict movement, while still allowing students to quickly identify their teammates during play.

Easy to Use Design

Wristbands are simple to put on and take off, much easier than a pinnie or vest, while bright colors are highly-visible. Low-profile design does not restrict movement, making them great for use by younger students learning fundamentals or during fast-paced play by older players.

Elastic knit construction is comfortable and machine-washable. Wristbands are easy to store because they take up less room than vests or pinnies. Rainbow Set includes 6 pairs, each in a different color to outfit and identify a group in seconds.

 

15 Creative PE Activities Using Rainbow Team Wristbands

The Rainbow Team Wristbands are soft, comfortable, and color-coded for quick and easy team identification. Designed to stay snugly in place during movement, they are ideal for organizing students into teams or groups while minimizing confusion during fast-paced activities. These wristbands make transitions smooth and efficient, and their bold, bright colors help with visibility and engagement. Below are 15 imaginative, fun, and skill-building activity ideas using Rainbow Team Wristbands to teach essential fundamental movement skills in physical education.

1. Band Buddies Balance Battle: Assign each color wristband to a team and have students balance beanbags (like the Gopher Beanbags) on their heads while walking along lines or low balance beams. Each successful trip earns their team points. This teaches static and dynamic balance.

2. Rainbow Relay Run: Students are split into color teams based on their wristbands. They run relay-style races incorporating locomotor skills like hopping, galloping, and skipping to tag the next teammate. Focus: Running, skipping, and leaping.

3. Wristband Wizard Tag: One color is "it" and tries to tag others. Tagged students must perform a body control movement (like 5 squats) before rejoining. Great for dodging, stopping, and directional change.

4. Rainbow Ring Toss Rumble: Place Gopher Rainbow Ring Toss sets in the gym. Teams earn points by running to toss rings matching their wristband color. Combines running, throwing, and accuracy.

5. Pull Together Tug: Using Gopher Tug-of-War Ropes, assign two colors to each side. Teammates work together in a tug-of-war competition. Focus: Pulling and teamwork.

6. Catch My Color: Use Gopher SoftCatch Balls in different colors. Students must catch balls only matching their wristband color. Develops hand-eye coordination and catching skills.

7. Dodge the Band Blast: Students wear wristbands and use Gopher Low-Bounce Balls. Only target players with a different color. This adds strategy while reinforcing dodging and spatial awareness.

8. Bouncer Band Bonanza: Using Gopher Rainbow Basketballs, students dribble through a cone maze. They must only pass or bounce to someone with a matching wristband color. Emphasizes dribbling, coordination, and teamwork.

9. Twisting Team Towers: Teams build towers using stacking cups. They must twist and reach to stack while balancing. Great for twisting, reaching, and balance control.

10. Swing Shift Scramble: Students with same-color wristbands use jump ropes. They swing the ropes side to side and jump together. Focus: Swinging, coordination, and agility.

11. Gallop Group Games: Each team gallops around cones, tagging teammates. The team that completes the most full circuits wins. Focus: Galloping and spatial timing.

12. Bounce Pass Bands: Students form color-coded pairs and must bounce-pass Gopher Rainbow Basketballs between themselves. Focus: Bouncing, catching, and precision passing.

13. Scoot and Score Showdown: Using Gopher Scooters, students race in teams to retrieve beanbags matching their wristband color. Promotes pushing, pulling, and coordination.

14. Color Clash Capture: Teams must steal beanbags from other teams' zones and return them to their base. Players can only take colors not matching their wristband. Encourages agility, decision-making, and speed.

15. Jump and Juggle Joyride: Players perform jumping jacks while tossing and catching beanbags of their wristband color. Great for coordination and power movements.
