For ease of use, the Mega Hoops FUNdamentals curriculum (22 pages) has been split into individual lesson plans.

Each lesson starts with an "animal" warm-up and finishes with a cool-down and de-brief.

Links to similar or complementary drills are included where available (see Favourite drills for kids, also Mega Hoops Clinic 2014).
