Description

A Wide Game that involves Cubs working as teams to collect Glow Sticks from Leaders by answering questions, whilst being pursued by Young Leaders!

Resources

Glow Sticks (If playing in daylight the Glow Sticks could be replaced by Ribbons, Balloons etc).
Lots of general knowledge questions / challenges
1 whistle
At least 1 Leader per team

Instructions

Cubs must stay together in their team to find a Leader who has glow sticks. (Each Leader starts the game with some glow sticks).

Once the Cubs find a Leader, the Leader picks a challenge:
- Answer a quiz question (see a list of questions in Quiz Night)
- Rock Paper Scissors
- Noughts and Crosses
- Odd or Even with small stones
- 5 press ups
- First to blink
- Cards high or lower
- Concentration hand clapping game, match the rhythm

If they do not answer correctly, they must go off and find a different Leader and do the same again.
Cubs can only do the challenge (and earn a glow stick) if the whole team is present.
Cubs may not return to the same Leader immediately - they must go to another Leader before returning.

To make it harder Young Leaders try to catch the Cubs while they are running between Leaders. If the YLs touch any member of the team, the team must give the Young Leader one of their glow sticks. The Young Leader then passes the glow stick back to a Leader so that it can be re-earned by the team by answering a question correctly.

The game starts with a blow on the whistle and ends either when the Leaders have no more glow sticks or the whistle is blown again. The winning team is the one with the most glow sticks.

We use HQ as a base for Cubs to either rest or if there are any problems.
