To cooperate with your team for a common objective.
Aim/s
To enjoy playing.
There are two teams: the defence and the attacker. Each
team is responsible of half of the field, which will be
delimited with lines (painted on the floor when possible).
All participants will wear a scarf or a piece of cloth hanging
from their back part of the trousers. If it is possible, there
should be two colours for the scarfs to distinguish both
teams.
The objective of the game is to score by touching the floor
of the defence's marking part (delimited also with lines on
each field). The defence has to stop them. Each time the
attacker team scores, they win a point. The team with more
points is the winner.
Instructions The game starts in the middle of the field, where the ball is
thrown up in the air. The team that catches the ball will start
attacking, so they will have to run to the opposite marking
part and touch the floor with the ball. The team which
doesn't catch the ball (the defence), will have to stop the
attacker by getting back the ball. There is just one way to do
it, and it is by taking someone's cloth from the trouser. In
this game, touching the others is not allowed, being a foul.
If the defence gets back the ball on the opposite field, they
have to pass it to a mate who is in their field, who will start
to run to the others' field.
The ball (if possible a rugby ball) can be transported and
passed with hands or feet.
