Scatter Tag

Assemble a grid within a larger grid and divide participants into two teams, 'Attackers' and 'Defenders'. ‘Attackers’ each carry a ball and jog clockwise within the smaller grid whilst the defending team jogs anti-clockwise around the outside of the larger grid. On the Coach's signal, the ‘Attackers’ must leave the smaller grid and attempt to score a try by exiting the larger grid before being tagged by a ‘Defender’. If tagged, the ‘Attacker’ joins the ‘Defenders’. Repeat the process until all ‘Attackers’ have been tagged before swapping teams.

• 16 x cones
• 1 x ball per attacker

Participants develop spatial awareness, agility and learn to move confidently in this fun and competitive evasion game.

• Alter the size of the grid.
• On the signal, "swap", participants change direction.

• What part of the body should we look at when tagging an opponent?
• How should we hold the ball when running with it?
• What can we do to ensure that we do not run into other participants?
