PIKE FLAG/PIQUE BANDEIRA

Pique Bandeira / Pike Flag is a childhood game that in addition to fun builds various physical and emotional qualities in children. In addition to teaching how to work in groups and protect or save friends. It’s very simple!

In much resembles football, although without the ball, because 2 teams face each other with the aim of taking the opposing flag and bringing it to their field (resembling in Football to score the goal in the opponent and not allow the opponent to score his point by taking his flag and returning to his field without being caught).

When an attacker is caught (pasted) he goes to the bottom of the field and only participates when one of his team saves him by entering the opposing field and taking him off with a touch. Offensive and defensive strategies are similar to Football, as are the tactics and plays rehearsed.

Happy those who played Pique Bandeira / Pike Flag and other Pikes in Childhood and went to play or work in Football.

P.S. – More similar to Football or Soccer if instead of flaf we use balls.

P.S. 2 – Oh… and also happier those who flyed Pipa /Kite  too!                   I’ll talk about it one day!
