| Equipment: | Piece of rope or string for each player. |
| Preparation: | 2 equally sized teams, define two areas as pig pens, or homes. |
Each team goes to their ‘pen’ and nominates one of their team to be the catcher, all the other players have a piece of string or rope as a tail which they tuck loosely into their clothing. Players are then released from their pens and catchers have to snatch as many tails as possible in a given time. Players when they lose a tail have to go back to their pens from which they may be released if they are given another tail by their own team catcher.
After a time stop and count to see which team has the most tails, including those that the catcher has.
