The activity’s unique format ensures everyone stays actively involved throughout the experience, making it perfect for any group setting.

Blob Tag – PE Tag Game
  1. Form pairs, with each pair holding hands.
  2. Invite one pair to start as the ‘blob’ or initial tagging team.
  3. All other pairs spread throughout a wide, open designated area.
  4. All pairs must hold hands at all times. If a fleeing pair releases hands, they will be deemed to have been tagged.
  5. Upon being tagged, a pair will release hands and, as individuals, assume a tagging position at each end of the blob, before resuming the chase.
  6. If two or more people forming part of the blob lose grip, the blob cannot successfully tag a fleeing pair until re-joined.
  7. The game continues until the last pair has been tagged.

    Agreed Daniel, it is a wonderful game that I don’t get to use often. It is lots of fun and great to use in a large outdoor area.

    One of my favourites that are easy and quick to set up and explain and get involved in.
