HOW TO PLAY
1
Choose two or three players to be 'current' taggers, who must move around the field using a rowing motion with both arms instead of running freely.
2
All other players move around the space using the same rowing arm motion while trying to avoid being tagged.
3
A tagged player must freeze in place with arms still rowing, and can only be freed if another free player rows past and tags them.
4
The round ends when all players are frozen at once, or after a set time limit.
5
Rotate who plays the taggers so everyone gets a turn, and play multiple rounds.
