It promotes explosive reaction, focus, and safe competition, ideal for maintaining intensity without physical contact.

Fox Tail Tag is an energetic and chaotic tag game where each player wears a strip of fabric (“tail”) tucked into their waistband. The goal is to capture as many tails as possible while protecting your own. This dynamic activity develops reaction speed, agility, peripheral awareness, and is excellent as a warm-up game to raise engagement and competitiveness in players of all ages.
