Number your Topple Tubes on the yellow ends 1-24 (be sure to underline 6 and 9 and 12 and 21).

Place the topple tubes in a grid pattern with sufficient space between so players can walk/run between the columns and rows.
-
Place six spots or cones at least four paces from any of the ends of the grid.

If you have 24 players place teams of three players behind each cone/spot.

If you have more players add more players to each team.

Assign each team a set of 4 numbers (1-4, 5-8, 9-12....).

If the number is not one from their team's set they place the tube back on it's place with the number down.

If the number is not the first number, or the next needed number, the tube is placed number down in the spot it was retrieved from, and team members are informed which number it is and where it is located.
