Divide the group into two teams as large as you want. <P>
Each team is given a flag. <P>
Each player has a piece of cotton tied around their wrist. <P>
First define the playing area and set a base in the middle of it. <P>
One team gets 10 minutes to hide their flag, then they have to defend it but only two people can stay by the flag but cannot hold it. <P>
Â
All you need is a good hill with lots of cover on the way up, a powerful flash light and a dark night. <P>
Â
The game is you sit one or two so they have company at the top of the hill with the flash light. Everyone else hides down the bottom of the hill or at a set distance depending how big it is. <P>
For this wide game a low orchard or heath land works best. <P>
You will need:
Three buckets lined with tin foil with a flashing light strapped over the top (bike lights work great). <P>
Loads of tokens and stickers, and a luminus stick (the type you snap to make glow) one person, I use fishing float oÂnes with string to make a necklace. <P>
A table as a base. <P>
For this you need to find a good location a small town centre or village even a shopping mall. Leaders have to dress up and situate themselves in the oÂne location where they try to blend in. With careful planning you can be very creative, we have had people cleaning cars oÂn a garage forecourt, as a builder oÂn a site, a window cleaner oÂn a bank, and as an elderly couple drinking cream teas in a shop window. It works well to throw in oÂne really bizarre disguise my favourite was a busker playing a violin wearing a dog mask.< ?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
