Description Of Activity

 

Create a large activity area using cones as a boundary.
Designate 13 students to be taggers, each with a noodle.
Scatter students, each with a lacrosse stick (except taggers).
Give of the students a ball.

  • Today's activity is called Lacrosse Tag.
  • The objective of this activity is to avoid taggers while cradling a lacrosse ball.
  • Your ball is your safety source. As long as you have a ball, you cannot be tagged. If you drop your ball, you cannot pick it back up. However, anyone without a ball can try to scoop it up for themselves.
  • When you hear the start signal, everyone will start jogging around the activity area. Those who have a ball will begin cradling it as they move. Taggers have noodles and will try to tag players without a ball. Be gentle and only tag the back and shoulders.
  • If you are tagged, move to the perimeter, set your lacrosse stick on the ground, and ski jump over it (side to side) 10 times before rejoining the game.
