Set up 4 staves as a 3x3 grid on one end of the field.

Two teams of 6 are lined on the opposite end of the field, with 3 players holding a color square of their team in their hand.

They will play a game of noughts and crosses (tic tac toe).

Each player will run forward and place their bib in a square.  The first team to form a 3 in a row line (diagonal, horizontal, vertical) of their teams colours wins a point.

If neither team has won from the initial run in then players can move their own team's bibs continually until one team wins.

If you have bigger teams, number your players and call 3 numbers out to start. They can then run back to the sideline to tag another player in to move a bib.

makes about 40 small biscuits or 20 large biscuits.  Can place in brown bags for cubs to take some home rather than eat them all during the programme :-)

Use a rope to show where cub must jump from.  Each cub takes turns to jump.  A second rope is placed where the Cub lands and the next Cub has to at least clear the same distance or longer.  The rope is moved further apart with each jump.  If a Cub can't make the distance (2 tries)m they are out.

Build an obstacle course that includes:

• Throw a ball to somebody else, and catch it again eight times out of ten.
• Dribble a soccer ball and shoot a goal

• Climb a tree.
• Throw a cricket ball 27m or more.

• Hop around a figure of eight, each loop with a diameter of about 4 metres, changing feet at the start of the second loop
