Compass Relay

Line up teams in relay formation, parallel to each other. Opposite each team a compass is drawn on the floor, the points indicated but only the North lettered. The leader calls out a point. No. 1 man in each team steps out and places a pencil on the compass, pointing in the given direction, before the leader has counted six. If correct, the player falls in behind compass; if incorrect, he goes back and falls in at the further end of his team. Another point is called and the No. 2's step out. The first team to fall incomplete behind the compass wins.

There should be a referee for each team to avoid time wasted in verifying the compass directions shown.
