Hang Tag

Source: Games And Play For School Morale
Category: Eighth Grade





One player is chosen chaser or "it" and changes places with anyone whom
he can tag. Players may escape being tagged by hanging from anything
overhead which will enable them to lift their feet from the floor.
Played out of doors, players will naturally save themselves by catching
hold of the branches of trees. If played in a gymnasium or playground
pieces of apparatus may be used for the same purpose. Players are also
considered safe if instead of hanging by their hands, they throw
themselves across some obstacle such as a fence, which enables them to
lift their feet from the ground. No two players may hang from the same
piece of apparatus. The last one taking possession may keep his
position, the one before him being obliged to find another place. This
keeps the players constantly on the move and the game becomes more
interesting.
