*What to Expect*
The basics:
Two teams each protect a flag on opposite ends of a large grassy field while trying to capture the other team's flag and bring it back to their side. Players tagged in enemy territory are temporarily "frozen" until a teammate tags them free. Teams will be mixed by age so older and younger players can work together.
Physical activity:
The game involves running, walking, and quick changes of direction across a grassy area with hills and trees. Players set their own pace: there's no requirement to run, and strategic roles (guarding, directing teammates) are just as valuable as speed. That said, the terrain is uneven natural grass with trees, paths, and playground equipment and is not paved or fully flat.
