-Setting Up:
Mark the ends of a court with lines far enough from walls that players do not run into them.
At the centre of the playing area place a pool noodle.
Two players stand opposite the pool noodle.
-Instructions:
When players are ready, they play a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors.
The loser of RPS picks up the pool noodle and attempts to tag the RPS winner.
The winner of RPS attempts to run past their end line without getting tagged.
If tagger tags the other player the tagger scores a point, and if the runner succeeds in running past their endline without getting tagged, they score a point.
-Questions & Notes:
Many players can stand mid-court at the same time and play this game.
What strategies might help the tagger/runner?
