An Effective Game
A quick example of a game that really helped my son to concentrate playing catch (I think). Like the game of H-O-R-S-E in basketball; we swtiched it to C-A-T-C-H in baseball. Throwing the ball back and forth any dropped balls resulted in a earned letter.
Once he mastered catching (getting the glove turned over took a while) the game got more competitive, using pop-ups and short hops. You could bobble the ball, but it couldn't touch the ground. I never used it with a group but one-on-one it helped make things exctiting.
Try it out. Tell me what you think............
