Description: is a traditional outdoor game where two teams each have a flag (or other marker) and the
objective is to capture the other team's flag, located at the team's "base," and bring it safely back to
their own base.
Rules:
Capture the Flag requires a playing field of some sort. In both indoor and outdoor versions, the
field is divided into two clearly designated halves, known as territories. Players form two teams,
one for each territory. Each side has a "flag" which is most often a piece of fabric, but can be any
object small enough to be easily carried by a person (night time games might
use flashlights, glowsticks or lanterns as the "flags"). Sometimes teams wear dark colors at night
to make it more difficult for their opponents to see them. If one team has the opposing team's
flag on their territory they may be tagged because they have the opposing team's flag.
The objective of the game is for players to venture into the opposing team's territory, grab the
flag and return with it to their territory without being tagged. The flag is defended mainly by
tagging opposing players who attempt to take it. Within their territory players are "safe",
meaning that they cannot be tagged by opposing players. Once they cross into the opposing
team's territory they are vulnerable.
