You will need: •
• • • •
Go rainbow-tastic with this bright and colourful game of tag using a selection of vibrant Resene colours.
• • • •
Marker pen Paintbrush Area of asphalt measuring Paint roller and tray approximately 5.6m x 10m, Resene Lumbersider tinted to the following prepped first with Resene colours: Resene Bright Red, Resene Fizz, Resene Moss & Mould Killer, and then Gobstopper, Resene Outrageous, Resene Sports waterblasted. Star, Resene Surfs Up and Resene Top Secret Chalk • Resene Membrane Roofing Primer Duct tape • Resene Tennis Court Coating (green) Large set square • Tape measure Low tack masking tape
To get the look:
Step one Mask off a rectangle measuring 5.6m x 10m using duct tape, as shown.
Step two Apply one coat of Resene Membrane Roofing Primer to the masked off area and allow to dry.
Step three Measure and mark 400mm intervals on the duct tape around the four edges of the masked off area, as shown.
Step four Using our design and these measurements as a guide, paint in the red squares with two coats of Resene Bright Red, allowing two hours for each coat to dry. Overlap the marks by approx 50mm, as shown (these will be masked and painted over with adjoining colours).
When applying Resene Tennis Court Coating, brush or roller the first coat in one direction, and the second coat across in the other direction to get even coverage.
Other ideas for play: If bigger children or teens are going to be playing the game enlarge the template squares to 600mm, making the playing area 8.4m x 15m. Step five Repeat step 4 painting the yellow squares with two coats of Resene Fizz and the blue squares with two coats of Resene Sports Star. Allow two hours for each coat to dry.
Step six Measure, mark and mask the remaining squares, painting the orange squares with Resene Outrageous, the green squares with Resene Top Secret, the indigo squares with Resene Surfs Up and the violet squares with Resene Gobstopper. Remove any masking tape before the second coat of each colour has dried.

Step seven Again, using our design as a guide, measure, mark and mask the remaining strips and inner rectangles, as shown.
Step eight Using a brush for the smaller areas and a roller for the larger areas, apply one coat of Resene Tennis Court Coating to the masked off areas and allow three hours to dry. Apply a second coat and remove the masking tape and duct tape before the second coat has dried. Allow 24 hours before using.

Ground games with Mark Rayner – 7
Number of players: 2 teams of up to 30
Additional equipment:
#7a
Whistle
How to play: A player (or teacher) is selected to act as referee. Each team stands in their rectangular court and when the referee blows the whistle, the players run randomly around the court. The whistle is blown a second time and each player has to run to their nearest coloured square. The referee chooses one person from each team who is standing on a red square and when the whistle is blown a third time, each of these players has to run and ‘tag’ a team member who is standing on an orange square, and then they go and stand on the larger red square. The orange player then ‘tags’ a yellow player and the game continues until the colours of the rainbow are complete. The player who is violet, then tags another red player and so on. The winning team is the one that has completed most rainbows (or has fewest players left in play).
Direction of play:
Measurements: Setup is 5.6m wide x 10m high Grid squares are 400mm x 400mm
