LOGINBodyguards
A fun game with a role playing element that works on shooting, defending and goalkeeping.
The Rules
Split the area into 3 equal sized zones with a VIP (goalkeeper) and two bodyguards (defenders) in each zone. Place 4 balls beside each goal.
Bodyguards must stay in their zone and protect their VIP, who in turn must protect their goal.
Each team has one assassin who attempts to score points by beating the VIP to score a goal.
The assassin must be inside the opponent’s zone to score in their goal creating 2v1 or 1v1 situations (2 assassins can go for the same VIP).
Each assassin has 4 shots and must return to their own goal to reload and collect a new ball after each shot.
Main Objectives
Shooting, defending, goalkeeping.
Set Up
Area: 30x30x30 yard triangle
Players: 12, 3 teams of 4
Equipment: 12 balls, 3 mini goals (or 6 poles if no goals available)
