Instructions

Scouts will be split into equal teams and will play different game modes, such as:
- Team war - clue is in the title, two times engage until one whole team is wiped out
- Capture the flag - flag (or scarf etc.) is put in the middle and teams must capture the flag and get it back to base.
- Search and rescue - one player (hostage) from each team is put in the enemies base. The first team to get to their hostage without getting hit, wins.
- Protect the president - one player of a team is the president, and the others in the team are security guards. The enemy team must hit the president, and this should be times. The team who's president survives the longest wins.
- Siege the fort - One team has a fort, and nerf guns, and the opposing team are unarmed. The unarmed team have to get at least one person to a designated area near the opposing teams' fort without getting hit, to win.
- Freeze tag - two teams - aim is to hit the other team. One someone gets hit, they have to freeze, and they can only unfreeze by someone tapping them/shooting them (friendly fire). First team the freeze the whole other teams wins.
- Humans vs Zombies - two teams - one team is Humans (they have guns) - One team is Zombies (no guns) - Zombies must try to tag Humans before they are shot
- Free for all - Every person for themselves, last person standing wins
- Blindfold duels - Begin in tournament style, first, 2 duels happening at once, leaders adjudicating. The duel - each person stands next to a table with a nerf pistol and a single nerf bullet. On "Go", they have to quickly load their gun and shoot. First to hit the other player wins the round - gaining one point. Everyone gets 3 rounds at this stage. Then, the 4 people with top scores are in semi-finals. At this stage, only 1 duel happening at a time and a single hit means knockout from the tournament. Now, each player has multiple bullets, but they are also blindfolded. Play continues this way for 2 semi-finals and the final!
- Target practice - good one to start with - set up tower of plastic/paper cups and shoot them down
