This week’s PE Activity of the Week is Capture the Flag. This game focuses on teamwork.
Active Superstars plan, coordinate and prepare fun, energising games for children to participate in during our sports sessions. We like to be as unique as possible and ensure children have fun whilst working hard and learning new skills. Each week we share our favourite ‘PE Activity of the Week’ to give you an insight into our sessions and provide some inspiration for games of your own.
The Object of the Game:
The object of the game is to get the opposing teams flag, without getting caught and being sent to ‘jail’.
Skills Acquired:
- Focus
- Teamwork
- Coordination
- Running
- Thinking Skills
Instructions:
- Split the children up into two teams. They can have one end of the field/playground each and must hide their flag in their area.
- During this period ‘spies’ can be sent out to try and see where the flag is hidden
- Once the flag is hidden, the teams must try and find the opposing teams flag
- Some children can stay away and defend their area where the flag is hidden
- If a child gets tagged by the opposing team, then they must go to ‘jail’
- The first team to capture their opponents flag wins
