Bowline Centipede Race
|
|
Line up the Patrols in parallel files and provide each Scout with a rope. Conduct the race in two parts. Part I - Bowline Tying RaceBefore starting this race, each PL must make sure that every member of his Patrol can tie a bowline around his waist. At the word "Go" each player ties the knot and then squats or crouches. The first Patrol with all its members down wins, provided all bowlines were correctly tied. Part II - The Centipede RaceEach Scout grasps the rope of the player in front of him, and, in this centipede formation, Patrols run to the end of the room, turn around to the left, and run back across the starting line. The Patrol which crosses the line first wins, provided the centipede remained intact, no one lost his grip and all knots remained tied. TipCaution those at the head of the centipede to increase speed gradually and slow down at the turn, so that those behind do not lose grips or fall. |
