Shinty


Equipment

2 Shinty sticks - rolled up newspapers or stuffed football socks.
1 bean bag.
2 chairs.

Game Description

Divide the players into two teams facing each other along the sidelines of the area. Put the bean bag and shinty sticks on the centre spot.

Number the teams from opposite ends, so that the highest number in one team is facing the lowest in the other. Allocate a goal (chair) to each team, usually the one nearest the highest number.

When you call a number the Beaver/Cub picks up the stick and tries to score a goal by getting the bean bag through the chair legs. The team who scores the most goals wins.
