Galah Panjang

What you'll need

A large space for the game (Ideally, sized like a badminton court)
Chalk (for markings on the ground)

Players required
10 -12 players (enough to form 2 equal groups)

How to play:

1. Before the game can begin, use the chalk to mark the game area.

2. The objective of the running team is to get to the other end of the
Galah Panjang court. Players will have to do this by avoiding and
cleverly manoeuvring past the tagging team.

3. Divide the players into 2 equal groups. For each group, appoint a
team leader.

4. Decide with the team leaders which team will be the runners and
taggers. One way to do this is by playing Scissors, Paper & Stone!

5. The running team will have to take their places in area 1, behind
first the horizontal line.

6. The tagging team will then take their respective places on the
assigned lines. Its usually a good idea to spread out the tagging
team on the Galah Panjang court to increase the chances of
capturing the opposing team!

7. Start the game Players from the tagging team are not allowed to
run away from the lines they have been assigned to. Meaning,
players from the running team who are making their way to Area
5, can stop in any each area to rest or pause during the game.

8. Each time a player from the running team makes it to Area 5, the
team gets a point. However, should a running player get caught,
the point then is awarded to the tagging team.

9. To win, the players from the running team would have to come out
with a strategy to get past the players from the tagging team. If
one or many of the runners succeed to get into the same area, it
would be easy to defeat the taggers and finally run back to area I.

10. The game continues until one team obtains the highest
points.
