The object is to cross a designated length of field as a group with progressively fewer points of contact with the ground. A point is any part of a body that's touching the ground, so two players standing on two feet make four points. Two players, each standing on one foot, make two points, etc.
-
Every member of the group must be connected when the group moves. Start by allowing your group slightly more than one point per player: 10 players could have 12 points, 5 players could have 6 and so on. If the group successfully crosses the field, reduce the number. See how few points you need to successfully cross the field.

- Tips:
- Avoid solutions that don't feel safe. If you're worried, scratch the idea and find a new one. Once you have mastered the straight, flat field, spice up the game by playing with some obstacles, such as trees, or by creating a racecourse with cones or clothing as boundaries.
