SHARKS AND JETS TAG

SHARKS AND JETS TAG
Divide eveyone into two teams -- one is known as the Sharks and the other team is known as the Jets. Have both teams line up opposite one another in the middle of the shallow end of the pool with about five (5) feet of open water between them. A referee on the side blows the whistle and yells either "Sharks!" or "Jets!" The team called out must turn and sprint toward its side of the pool, with the other team in hot pursuit. A player tagged by a pursuing Shark or Jet joins the other team. The referee can let the chase continue all the way to the end of the pool --or-- he/she can sound the whistle at anytime to shout out the other team's name so in turn the pursuers are now being chased. Referee should change team names often...
