Capture the magic Football

The goal is to get the football from the other team and to return to your side. If a person is touched on their opponents’ side, they go to jail. People in jail can “link” together to make it easier to be rescued. You can be rescued from jail if someone can make it to jail without being touched. There can only be one person guarding jail.

If a person goes after your football, you have to be at least one arm length from the football. If people are guarding the football then you can announce that both teams must stay away from their own football. You can only go after opponents. Students can pull their opponents’ over the middle line but it must be a challenge that the opponent accepts. The football can be scored by running, throwing, or a combo of the two. If the ball hits the ground, it is dead and must go back to the original location. If a player runs out of bounds with the ball, they go to jail.

Keep score and the winning team is the one that is ahead when the period is over.
