The Tag Game

 

 

Exercise Objectives:
This is a fun warm up exercise that emphasizes a change of direction and acceleration.

 
Field Preparation
   Entire Group
   30 x 30 Yards
 
Coaching Pointers:

Group stands around the grid, spread out in an area approximately 30 yards x 30 yards. Two players start off the practice. One player the "runner, the second the "chaser". The "runner" avoids being tagged by the "chaser" by moving in and around the sitting players. If the runner is tagged he becomes the chaser. 

The runner can be relieved by standing "shoulder to shoulder" next to a resting player, thus making the player he stands next to the new "runner".
