HOW TO PLAY
1
Split into two teams and line up facing each other with the flag placed on the ground exactly between them.
2
Number each team's players identically, so every player has a matching number on the opposing team.
3
The caller shouts a number, and the two players with that number race to the middle to grab the flag.
4
The player who grabs the flag must run back to their own line before being tagged by the opposing number.
5
If the flag-grabber is tagged before reaching their line, the point goes to the other team; otherwise it goes to the grabber's team.
6
Keep calling numbers until every player has had a turn, then total the points to find the winning team.
