Band-Aid Tag

Warm Up Games

STORYLINE
Today we are playing Band-Aid Tag. Your goal is to avoid being tagged.  

INSTRUCTIONS

• I will select a tagger and a doctor (un-tagger).
• Before the game begins, spread out into the field.
• When I say, “GO!” the tagger will try and tag you.
• Taggers may only use a two-finger butterfly tag.
• If you are tagged, you must sit down and cover the injured area (where you got tagged). 
• The only way to get better is for the doctor to give you a band-aid (tag with a fuzzy ball).
• We will begin a new round when I select a new tagger and a new doctor. 

TEACHING TIPS

• Approach:
  • Play on a half-field only.  
  • Depending on class size, increase the number of taggers and doctors.
  • Have the tagger wear a flag to tell who they are.
