Instructions

Split into patrols. Give each patrol time to look at the Six Figure Grid References How To and teach anyone who doesn't know how to use them. Then hand out a copy of the instructions to each patrol and a map (each patrol should have a different map). They then take turns calling out 6 figure grid references to try and hit the targets on their opponents map. The first team to score 120 points is the winner. If they get to this too quickly you can run it up to 280 points which is the maximum score. Alternatively you can set a time limit and see who has scored the most by then.
