SCOUTS – Race and Romp Games
|
||||
Race and Romp Games
|
||||
Introduction
|
||||
These games are from the “Fun and Games” book written by Jack Dowling and first printed by The Scout Association of New
|
||||
Zealand in 1972 and “Fun and Games 2” for all sections, edited by Diana Balham in 1987. More recent games have been
|
||||
added as well.
|
||||
The games have been sorted into categories, with this category being Race and Romp type games that are quite physical,
|
||||
use up energy, but also require concentration. The games are listed alphabetically.
|
||||
If you have a favourite game in this category that you would like to share with other leaders, please forward the game
|
||||
instructions to reception@scouts.org.nz so it can be considered for adding to this document.
|
||||
These game sheets are to help new leaders get started. There are many more listed on the internet that may be used if
|
||||
desired.
|
||||
Bundles
|
||||
Equipment: A hula hoop or a rope loop for each team.
|
||||
Method:
|
||||
Divide the players into equal teams
|
||||
Place a hula hoop or a length of rope knotted into a loop so that the players are crammed together and all
|
||||
facing outward.
|
||||
On ‘Go’ the teams race to the other end of the hall, or perhaps around the hall, picking up an item from
|
||||
each corner so that they have to cover all corners.
|
||||
Dodge Ball
|
||||
Equipment: Two or more large balls.
|
||||
Method:
|
||||
The aim is to dismiss as many of the opposing team
|
||||
as possible within a given time.
|
||||
Draw three lines across the hall. Two lines are one
|
||||
meter from the ends of the hall; the other line is
|
||||
across the middle of the hall.
|
||||
Two members (throwers) of each team are selected
|
||||
and have to stay behind the one meter line. Team A at one end of the hall, and team B at the other.
|
||||
The remaining players from team A roam around the half of the hall immediately in front of the ‘throwers’
|
||||
from team B. The remaining players from team B roam around the other half of the hall, immediately in
|
||||
front of the team A ‘throwers’.
|
||||
The team A ’throwers’ aim to hit the team B players below the knees and if so, these players join the team
|
||||
B’s ‘throwers’. Team B ‘throwers’ aim to hit the team A players etc.
|
||||
The players must pick up the ball and return it to their ‘throwers’ by throwing it over the heads of the other
|
||||
team’s players. The team getting the ball back to their ‘throwers’ the quickest are the most likely to win.
|
||||
Flotsam Scramble
|
||||
Equipment: A large number of small items such as bean bags, small balls, socks, scarves etc. that can be carried in
|
||||
the hands.
|
||||
Method:
|
||||
Scatter the objects haphazardly in the middle of the playing area or hall.
|
||||
Line the players up at one end of the area or hall.
|
||||
On “Go” the players run to and touch a wall or object at the far end of the area, go to the objects on the
|
||||
ground and pick one up, then return to and touch the end wall again and then run back to pick up a second
|
||||
or third object.
|
||||
After 1 minute or so, stop the game.
|
||||
The player with the most objects in his or her hand is the winner.
|
||||
The team, six or patrol with the most objects could also be winners.

||||
Hopping and Barging
|
||||
Equipment: Nil
|
||||
Method:
|
||||
Chalk or draw a circle of about 2 meters diameter in the centre of the playing area.
|
||||
Form the Scouts into a line, tallest to shortest and split them into two equal teams.
|
||||
Number the teams off; starting with the tallest as number one (this will achieve teams of equal size).
|
||||
Form the teams up either side of the circle, about 3 metres back.
|
||||
The leader calls out a number and the two Scouts with that number step forwards. With folded arms and
|
||||
hopping on one leg, the players attempt to barge each other over the line and into the circle.
|
||||
As soon as a foot crosses the circle line the players return to their places and the next number is called.
|
||||
Allocate a number of points to the circle. The winner of each bout gets allocated the points. The team with
|
||||
the most points wins.
|
||||
An alternative is to make the circle a little bigger and have the game played inside the circle with the aim of
|
||||
barging one of the players out.
|
||||
Note that girls play against girls and boys against boys.
|
||||
Horses and Riders
|
||||
Equipment: Nil
|
||||
Method:
|
||||
Line the Scouts up tallest to shortest and pair them up with a same sized partner.
|
||||
The Scouts form a circle with one of the pair standing in front (the horse) and the other immediately behind
|
||||
(the rider) so in effect you have two circles, one in front of the other.
|
||||
At the word “Mount” the rider jumps up onto the back of the horse.
|
||||
At the word “Go”, the rider drops to the ground, goes around the front of the horse, scrambles between the
|
||||
horses legs and then runs around the circle clockwise and jumps back up on to the horse.
|
||||
At the word “Change” the horse and rider swap places.
|
||||
Run the game for about two minutes as a warm up.
|
||||
After the warm up, the last rider to remount drops out of the game but the rider stays in place to help form
|
||||
the race track.
|
||||
Note that girls pair with girls and boys pair with boys.
|
||||
Last Object
|
||||
Equipment: Treasure which is small items easily carried in one hand. One less in number than there are players. A
|
||||
whistle would be useful.
|
||||
Method:
|
||||
Divide the players into two teams.
|
||||
Place one team at each end of the hall or playing area.
|
||||
Place the objects in the middle of the playing area. Make sure there is one less item than players.
|
||||
On ‘Go’ all players rush in and pick up an object and return to their end of the area. The one without an
|
||||
item is out.
|
||||
Return the items to the middle and remove one.
|
||||
Continue playing until only one player remains.
|
||||
Soldiers and Robbers
|
||||
Equipment: Treasure which is small objects easily carried in one hand.
|
||||
Method:
|
||||
Put the players into two teams, ‘Soldiers’
|
||||
and ‘Tics’.
|
||||
Divide the hall in three parts. One quarter
|
||||
is the ‘Soldiers’ territory. A second quarter
|
||||
is the ‘Treasure field’, the remaining half
|
||||
is the ‘Tics’ territory.
|
||||
Mark the dividing lines with rope or chalk.
|
||||
Place the treasure across the width of the Treasure Field.
|
||||
The Soldiers line up in their territory and guard the treasure.
|
||||
The Tic’s start from their territory and dash into the treasure field, pick up a piece of treasure and dash
|
||||
back into their own territory and store the items.
|
||||
Once the ‘Tics’ cross the line and enter the Treasure Field, the ‘Soldiers’ can tag them and take them
|
||||
prisoner. The Soldiers cannot enter the ‘Tics’ territory.
|
||||
The Tic Prisoners must sit down behind the Solders territory.

|
||||
A Tic may tag another ‘Tic’ on the way to prison where upon the ‘Tic’ is free.
|
||||
The game ends when all the treasure has been collected or all the ‘Tics’ are imprisoned.
|
||||
Swap teams and start again if time permits.
|
||||
Star Dash
|
||||
Equipment: Nil
|
||||
Method:
|
||||
Create 2 metre circle that is the hub.
|
||||
The teams sit in relay formation arranged like the spokes of a wheel around the hub, all facing the centre,
|
||||
the team leader sitting at the front.
|
||||
The team members are numbered from the front.
|
||||
There are three commands: Change, Across and Around and each is followed by a team member’s
|
||||
number. E.g. “Change 3”, or “Around 6” and so on.
|
||||
Change: When this is called, the team members with that number change places by rising, running across
|
||||
the circle and sitting in the now vacant space in the opposite team.
|
||||
Across: When this is called, the team members with this number rise, run across the circle, around the
|
||||
opposite team and back to their place.
|
||||
Around: When this is called, the team members with this number rise, run clockwise around all the teams
|
||||
and back to their place.
|
||||
The first Scout to be seated is the winner.
|
||||
Speed up the game by calling say two commands one after the other. After a period of time, increase the
|
||||
commands to three.
|
||||
Toss Up
|
||||
Equipment: One coin
|
||||
Method:
|
||||
Chalk or mark a start line across the centre of the playing area. If outside, you will need another two lines
|
||||
parallel to the starting line but at opposite ends of the area. If inside, the end walls of the hall will do.
|
||||
Form the Troop into two equal teams and have them line up either side of the start line. One team is called
|
||||
heads and the other tails.
|
||||
A coin is tossed and the leader calls out “heads” or “tails”.
|
||||
If “heads” is called, the “heads team” has to chase and tag the other team before they reach the safety of
|
||||
the end line, and vice versa.
|
||||
After a warm up period, all the tagged Scouts are out and leave the game.
|
||||
Continue until there is one person left.
|
||||
Whack’em
|
||||
Equipment: Loosely rolled up newspaper held together with one round of electrical tape or masking tape (this baton
|
||||
should be a bit floppy so it won’t hurt or bruise the players).
|
||||
Method:
|
||||
Form the players in a circle and sit them on the floor with their heads bowed and their hands stretched out
|
||||
behind them.
|
||||
One player is given the rolled up newspaper and walks quickly around the circle and quietly places the
|
||||
newspaper in one hand of one of the seated players.
|
||||
The player with the newspaper quickly stands and starts to whack the player sitting on the same side as the
|
||||
newspaper was placed.
|
||||
The player being whacked, runs around the circle to get away from the ‘whacker’ and back to his or her
|
||||
place.
|
||||
The ‘whacker’ then changes places with the player who has just been chased.
|
||||
The new ‘whacker’ then walks quickly around the circle and places the newspaper in the hand of another
|
||||
player and the game continues. The idea is to be sneaky when putting the newspaper down so the person
|
||||
sitting beside the new ‘whacker’ doesn’t get much warning unless they are very alert.
|
||||
No hitting above the shoulders. The ‘whacker’ should be stood down if he or she deliberately or repeatedly
|
||||
hits someone on the head or face.
