||
Tag 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. These game sheets are to help new leaders get started. There are
|
||
many more listed on the internet that may be used if desired.
|
||
The games have been sorted into categories, with this category being Tag 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.
|
||
Bean Bag Touch
|
||
Equipment
|
||
A bean or wheat bag or similar
|
||
Method
|
||
The players stand in a circle one pace apart.
|
||
One player (‘It’) stands in the middle of the circle, holding the bag.
|
||
‘It’ throws the bag to one of the players in the circle and then runs out of the circle.
|
||
The player catching the bag runs into the circle and places the bag on the floor or ground in the
|
||
middle, and then chases and tries to tag ‘It’.
|
||
‘It’ has to avoid getting tagged and get back into the circle and touch the bag within say 30 or
|
||
40 seconds in order to survive.
|
||
If ‘It’ is tagged before touching the bag, or runs out of time, he or she is out and the ‘tagger’
|
||
becomes ‘It’.
|
||
If ‘It’ is not tagged and manages to touch the bag, he or she remains in the centre and throws
|
||
the bag to someone else.
|
||
The team with the most players left after 10 mins is the winner.
|
||
Bodyguard
|
||
Equipment: None
|
||
Method:
|
||
One player is appointed as ‘It’.
|
||
‘It’ then appoints 3 bodyguards to stop him or her being tagged.
|
||
On “Go” the Troop members attempt to tag ‘It’.
|
||
If ‘It’ is tagged, the tagger takes the place of ‘It’ and appoints 3 new bodyguards.
|
||
The advantage of this game is that all Scouts are involved as no one is out.
|
||
Bottle-O
|
||
Equipment
|
||
Two plastic soft drink bottles
|
||
A set of keys or similar.
|
||
Method
|
||
Form the players into two teams, one at each end of the playing area, and number them off.
|
||
Place one bottle at each end of the playing area. (no tops needed)
|
||
Place the keys in the middle of the playing area.

|
||
When a player’s number is called by the Leader, one player from each team runs to the
|
||
opposite end of the hall and stands the bottle upside down.
|
||
The player then runs back to the middle, attempts to retrieve the keys and take them back to
|
||
the team to win a point.
|
||
The player that misses the keys may chase the other player and tag him or her and win the
|
||
point, assuming that the bottle is still balanced on its top.
|
||
Box Tag
|
||
Equipment - Nil
|
||
Method
|
||
Draw a square in each corner of the room. This is the home base / safe haven for each Patrol or
|
||
team and is also a haven for players from other teams.
|
||
Appoint the PLs as the ‘taggers’.
|
||
The players have to run from their home base to the next square or haven and around the
|
||
playing area until they have returned safely to their home base/haven.
|
||
The PLs attempt to tag the players as they leave or enter each haven.
|
||
Anyone tagged is out. Anyone getting safely home wins a point for the team.
|
||
Chain Tag
|
||
Equipment Nil
|
||
Method
|
||
One person is appointed as ‘It’.
|
||
‘It’ roams the playing area and tags a player.
|
||
The player holds ‘It’ by one hand and then together they attempt to tag another person. Only
|
||
the last person in the chain may tag the players.
|
||
The ‘tag’ is only valid if the chain is unbroken.
|
||
Dog and Bone
|
||
Equipment
|
||
A scarf or other object that is easy to pick up and carry.
|
||
Method
|
||
Form the players into two equal teams, number the players and place them at opposite ends of
|
||
the playing area.
|
||
Place the scarf or object (the ‘bone’) on the floor or ground.
|
||
The Leader call out a number and the two players race to the object and attempt to pick it up
|
||
and dash back to their team.
|
||
The player who misses the object then attempts to tag the other player before he or she gets
|
||
back to their team.
|
||
A point is allocated to each team if the player gets back to them with the object without being
|
||
tagged.
|
||
Laps
|
||
Equipment
|
||
4 chairs or stools
|
||
Method
|
||
Place four chairs at the corners of the playing area so as to make a large square.
|
||
Space the Patrols or teams around the hall so there is the same amount of space between
|
||
them.
|
||
On ”Go” the first member of each Patrol races clockwise around the circle and back to their
|
||
place in the Patrol or team.

|
||
Rodeo
|
||
Equipment - nil
|
||
Method
|
||
Each team establishes a stable (a place to keep captured horses)
|
||
Appoint one person from each team to be the cowboy who is to capture a specific number of
|
||
horses. Make it a reasonable number such as 1/5th of the horses available to keep the game
|
||
short and snappy.
|
||
The rest of the troop are the wild horses and roam at will around the playing area.
|
||
On “Go” the cowboy dashes out and captures horses belonging to the other team(s) by tagging
|
||
them. Once tagged the horses the cowboy must take the horses to his or her stables.
|
||
The first team to get the required number of horses into the stables wins.
|
||
Rope Tag
|
||
Equipment
|
||
One length of about 10 to 15mm diameter rope
|
||
A small bag of sand or a beach ball in a bag, tied to one end of the rope.
|
||
Method
|
||
One leader stands in the centre of the playing area and starts whirling the role around so that
|
||
the bag on the end is almost touching the edge of the playing area or walls of the hall.
|
||
The bag at the end of the rope must not be higher than the knees of the Scouts.
|
||
The Scouts have to enter the playing area and jump over the rope.
|
||
Any Scout hit below the knees by the rope is out.
|
||
We suggest the leader stand still and pass the rope around his or her body rather than twirling
|
||
around for obvious reasons.
|
||
Twin Tag
|
||
Equipment nil
|
||
Method
|
||
Appoint two players at the ‘taggers’.
|
||
They join hands and endeavour to tag any single player in the play area.
|
||
Once tagged, the single player joins hands with the twins.
|
||
When a fourth player is tagged they break into twins again and both twins continue to tag the
|
||
players, creating new twins whenever they get to four taggers.
|
||
Continue until there are no single players left to tag.
|
||
The last player to be tagged is the winner.
|
||
Note
|
||
Does your troop have a tag game that is modern and quite different to any on these pages? If so, email the
|
||
details to reception@scouts.org.nz so we can review the game and consider adding it to these pages.
