On the leader’s signal to begin, players attempt to safely run to the other team’s FoodGroup Flag’s area (where they are safe) and back to their half of the playing area (returning with a FoodGroup Flag)—the FoodGroup Flag is then placed in the Serving Area.
-
The taggers attempt to tag, with pool noodles, any players running through their team’s zone. When players are tagged, they return to their side of the playing area (if they have a FoodGroup Flag in their hands that needs to be returned to the FoodGroup Flags area before returning to their team’s zone.
