Initial layout and description of the O.K. Game – Cooperative Version
Once you have made the two groups, each group is a row of india from the Free Throw of each basket.
In each group, the first player will shoot a Free Throw. Mark it or not, go to your ball and you return to the row. If the Free Throw is made, all players on the team (the two groups) ‘sing’ the total score that you wear. At the end of the time, the computer (the sum of the two groups) have also obtained a total score. It will make the other two rounds to improve that score. What is important is that the team is consistent and regular.
Note: as a general in the first round do not mark as much as the last one. In case of being upside down, there is not that dramatic, but it does appeal to the constancy and regularity collective.
