British Bulldog
British Bulldog is a high-energy physical game in which one player stands in the center of the space while the rest attempt to run from one side to the other without being caught. Tagged players join the catcher for subsequent rounds until only one runner remains. The game builds physical confidence, spatial awareness, and group energy.
