TAG is a popular schoolyard pastime that involves two or more players chasing each other in an attempt to 'TAG' or touch the other player. It is a game of TAG that is often played during recess or lunchtime at school. The goal of the game is for one player to be designated as 'it' and then try to TAG the other players before they can reach a designated safe spot. The game is usually played with no equipment, but sometimes a ball or other object is used to designate the 'it' player.
