Outdoor Games

On a nice sunny day who wants to be stuck inside?

Materials Required

Any games equipment.

Meeting Outline

Fairly simple really. Take people outside and show them a few games. If everyone is enjoying one game don't stop them to move on to the next.

Popular games include "Prisoner's Base", "Drop Hankey" and "King Caesar".

Possible Problems

Rain is an obvious problem. People may be a little disinclined to be involved in physical activity. Don't force them.

Other Options

Team games are always a possibility. A gentile game of shinty can be great fun.
