Capture The Flag

Capture the Flag requires a playing field of some sort. Whether indoor or outdoor, the field is divided into two halves, known as territories. Players form two teams, one for each territory. Each side has a "flag" which is most often a piece of fabric, but can be any object small enough to be easily carried by a person. Eye black is suggested for team members to create team unity. The object of the game is for players to make their way into the opposing team's territory, grab the flag and return with it to their own territory without being tagged. The flag is defended mainly by tagging opposing players who attempt to take it. Within their own territory players are "safe," meaning that they cannot be tagged by opposing players. Once they cross in to the opposing team's territory they are vulnerable.

Location

The flags are placed in a visibly obvious location at the rear of a team's territory.

Jail

If a player is tagged while in the opposing team’s territory they go to jail. The only way to be released is if their teammates come into the jail and tag them free. Even then both members must return to their own side without being tagged. Guys can only free one incarcerated teammate at a time, girls can free two teammates.

Capturing the flag

Once someone captures the opposing team’s flag they must return to their own side without being tagged. If they are, the flag is returned to its original location.

Rules

Seriously, no fighting. Do you want to be known as the guy or girl who fought someone over steal the flag?
