A nautical themed, rapid-fire action game where youth must follow themed commands given by the "Captain" or face elimination.

• The Setup: The hall is designated as a giant pirate ship. The front of the hall is Bow, the back is Stern, the left is Port, and the right is Starboard.

• The Commands: The Leader (The Captain) calls out various commands that the youth must immediately act out:

  • “The Captain’s Coming!” – Everyone stops, salutes, and shouts “Aye Aye Captain!”. They cannot move or break the salute until the leader says “Ease Springs”.

  • “Port / Starboard / Bow / Stern” – Everyone runs to that specific wall.

  • “Scrub the Deck” – Drop to hands and knees and mimic scrubbing the floor.

  • “Climb the Rigging” – Stand in place and mimic climbing a ladder.

  • “Shark Attack!” – Youth must get both feet completely off the floor (climbing onto chairs, the stage, or balance benches) within 5 seconds.

• Elimination: Anyone who performs the wrong action, runs the wrong way, or moves during the Captain’s salute is out.
