Game Description:
A modified version of Ultimate Frisbee but instead of a Frisbee this game is played with a rubber Chicken.
Objective:
To pass the chicken to your teammates and move to the other teams end zone to score a point.
Game Rules:
Divide the group into two teams, each team on either side of the playing surface. To start the game have one team throw the chicken across the playing surface towards the other team. The receiving team will then pass the chicken around trying to move towards the other teams end zone. If the chicken hits the ground or is intercepted then other defending team gets possession of the chicken. Players may not run with the chicken, the only way to advance the chicken is to throw it to a teammate.
Adaptations (optional):
Can also use a fox-tail and then progress up to the discs.
Progression (optional):
This is a great lead up game to eventually play ultimate Frisbee.
