Guards and Guerrillas

  • Indoors/outdoors
  • Equipment: None
  • Formation: Teams

The Pack divides into two teams. One team stands in a line at the end of the room, facing the wall. They are the 'Guards'. The second team, who are the 'Guerrillas', form a line at the opposite end of the room.

They creep quietly upon the 'Guards'. When the leader of the 'Guerillas' thinks that his team has crept as near as they dare, he gives a signal and all the team gives one loud clap and then turns and runs home. As soon as the 'Guards' hear the clap, they turn and chase the 'Guerrillas'. Any who are caught become 'Guards'. When there are no 'Guerrillas' left, the teams change roles.
