Capture the flag

Capture the flag

Capture the flag is a fun game where you try to get the flag from the opposing team.

It may take up to thirty minutes on average to play and you need 12 or more people to play (six or more aside).

Playing Area

Equipment:

• Two flags.
• A playing area that is cut into two sides.

Rules:

1. You can only tag the people if they are on your side of the playing area.
2. If you get tagged you must do 10 push-ups or 50 star-jumps.
3. You must be two meters from the flag.
4. You can not move or touch your flag.

Hiding the flag:

1. You must hide your flag on your side.
2. There must always be part of the flag showing.
3. Once your flag is hidden you can not touch it.

Tips:

1. Some people in the team should fool the opposing team to think it is somewhere else like the opposite corner of the playing area (have two spots you are guarding).
2. When hiding split the group in two and let one of the split-up teams go and hide it while the other team fools them by making it look like there are two hiding spots.
3. Try to wear the other team out by making them do so many push-ups or star-jumps that they get tired and you get a free run to the flag and back to your side.

For the past week, we have been working on writing about a game. We had to include the rules, a brief statement of what it is like playing.
