Welcome PE Nation!

Today I share my five favorite large group invasion games that develop strategy, tactics, and skill development for PE classes of all sizes, whether teaching inside or outside.

1. Crossover - teams try to get all players across to the opponent's side while avoiding taggers with pool noodles

2. Capture the Flag- features three jerseys (flags) per team on tall cones that must be retrieved from opponent territory

3. Capture the Football- requires teams to retrieve the football from opponent's box and either run or throw it across midline to score

4. Hunger Games- includes immunity jerseys, tennis balls for points, and strategic items like safety hoops and extra noodles

5. Save the World- challenges teams to knock down pins in opponent territory using dodgeballs while avoiding being tagged

• All games can be modified with different tagging methods: simple tagging, pool noodles, or flag belts for increasing difficulty

Try them out!
