All players stand in a big circle except for the tagger. The coach appoints one player as the 'chosen one'.
The tagger must not listen or look whilst the coach is selecting the chosen player.
Once the player has been selected by the coach the tagger starts hunting for the chosen player.
When the tagger positions themselves in front of the chosen player the player must run away - around the outside of the circle of players.
From this point the tagger has up to 45 seconds to catch the player.
Increase the overall size of the circle to make the drill more difficult and decrease it in size to add to the difficulty.
