16th Cards Exercise game

Report Copyright Infringement View in OSM UK

Description

very high energy, do this if the activity before/after is a long period of sitting down


Resources

pack of cards, 1 chair per team

Instructions

Split the section into sixes/patrols and sit them at one end of the hall

At the other end of the hall is one suit from a pack of cards, face down on a chair with a
leader standing behind the chair

One at a time, each person runs up to the chair and picks a card and gives it to the
leader

The leader gives them an exercise to do the number of times as was on the card (jack
queen and king are all 10, ace is 10 for scouts and 1 for cubs)

The exercise should be something reasonably possible, e.g. star jumps, spins, jumping
jacks, run the width of the hall, press ups (if they can’t do a proper one let them do it on
their knees), sit ups (low numbers only because there isn’t an easy version)

Winning team is the one that does all the cards the quickest
