2nd most visited tourist attraction after Buckingham Palace: Bicester Village (designer goods).

Working in groups, come up with an advert for a new designer perfume for Scouts (YLs/SPLs to be judges)
What's it called
Who made it (brand name)
etc




Game - Battle of the walls
Resources
Foam balls


Assign opposite walls as GWC/HW
due to the different numbers of troops on each wall, assign more groups to defend GWC (e.g. if you have 4 groups, 3 defend GWC, 1 HW)
The GWC is the whole wall, HW is smaller (about enough to fit the group of defenders in front of)
Try to hit the other wall, bouncing off the ceiling, defenders, etc also count as hits
1 hit is 1 point
if the defenders catch the ball before it hits the wall the other team looses all their points, needs to be a clean catch (not pinning to the floor etc), but counts if it's caught after bouncing
