Conquer Liechtenstein Game

This Game is meant for Scouts BSA.

5x5 foot mat or 6 foot diameter circle marked on ground

(Liechtenstein is a tiny country of 62 square miles in Europe.)

Explain that the target area is Liechtenstein and their 'army' needs to conquer the territory and expel any opposition.

Divide group into two teams.
Teams start on opposite sides of Liechtenstein about 20 feet away.
On 'Go' signal, teams race to Liechtenstein and try to get as many of their teammates in the target area as possible while keeping off the other team members.
After 30-45 seconds, the team leader blows a whistle or gives 'STOP' signal.
The team with the most members in Liechtenstein wins that round.

Have teams regroup, strategize, and play again.

People can be pulled or pushed, but you might need to add a rule that no clothes can be grabbed.
