Partner Tag

A.K.A. Elbow Tag

A.K.A. Hook-Up



Players spread around the field in pairs, with their arms hooked.  There is an "it" and another player without a partner who is the one chased.  The one being chased can hook onto one of the pairs scattered on the field, in which case the second person in that pair becomes the new chased.  When a tagging occurs, the roles simply reverse.  no immediate tag-backs allowed.  I play this with a group of scouts of mixed ages and genders, and they love it!
