Game version
Tag-belt dodge: a partner tries to pull your tag while you step and weave, with no body contact. A pulled tag just means swap roles.
Two on Two Tag Attack
Use angles, timing and dummy runs to score against two defenders.

The steps
How it works
- Mark a 15-yard wide channel.
- Two attackers try to score; two defenders tag.
- Try a switch, a loop or a straight step to beat them.
- Play 5 rounds of 1 minute and swap.
Coaching point
Make them choose, then punish it.
Safety: Tag only: touch with two hands or pull a tag belt. No grabbing, pushing or tackling.
Make it fun
Play it, don't drill it
Challenge
Pick a level: Less (partner walks), Core (jogs), More (two cones to weave). Beat your own count of tags kept.
