Bulldog.

Banned from schools and the young of today will never understand just how fun it was, tackling your best mate, putting them into some sort of head lock and slamming them to the floor, on a solid concrete playground

Did you play Murderball?

Rules: taking turns to throw the ball against the wall. If you didn't catch it you then had to run from where you dropped your catch to the wall to be safe, while everyone tried to punch, kick and trip you up to prolong the pain. Definitely got your eye in for cricket fielding!

Similar. Tunnel of death. Everyone stood facing a wall. Arms up leaning on it, creating a tunnel. Some poor unlucky person had to run through and get kicked while doing it x

Crops.

Primary school would have a 100m 6 lane chalk running track on the field every summer. Like bulldog but you couldn't leave the boundary of the running track. The game got banned because me and a mate caused a whimpy kid to cry. He might have broken his arm come to think of it.......

Headers and Volleys with the loser getting red arsed.

Red Arse (or Red Ass) is a playground game, particularly popular in the UK, where participants try to hit a loser's rear end with a ball, often with the loser bending over against a wall.

We had the gauntlet, during going to classes, there would be a pre-arranged corridor where everyone would fill, 1 person who was nominated had to get from one end to the other, while everyone filling the corridor was basically allowed to hit, kick etc. If you done it once, you didnt need to do it again. If you hit the deck, no one was allowed to touch you, till you were up and running again. Also no face shots.

I remember 1 year, someone took a chair the the face, 2 days later someone took a fire extinguisher to the legs. The school come down heavy on it, teachers were patrolling constantly.

That game where you attempt to crack each other on the knuckles, with the first to flinch getting an unrestrained one!

Can't remember what it was called arond my way, but probably had regional variations of its name, including the appropriate "Bloody Knuckles"

I genuinely believe its that type of shit at school which is why people born before 2000's arent a bunch of fanny's 🤣🤣. We knew how to take a fall or a bump, were used to being roughed up and were afraid to stand up for ourselves. Tried to make my god son climb a tree the other week becuase why not, he was more scared he was going to fall out and get seriously hurt... then im there hanging by my legs at 34 with some right bad health problems 🤣🤣🤣

That's the variant for sissies! The true game involved the cracking sound of bone-on-bone, and occasional appearances of the ol' red, red kroovy.

Let's not forget the classic "shin-kicking". That was the one which was singled-out most by the teachers around my way, as it was pretty brutal.

We played this with a deck of cards, called Scabby Queen! If you was left with the queen of spades you got the ‘raps’ on the knuckles with the deck. Cut the deck and the card was the number of raps, reds for hard and black for soft. Horrible game!

Nerve. Slamming a compass needle between your fingers as fast as possible. Another 'game' was Slam. Place your hand in a filing cabinet or desk drawer. Begin the countdown and try to take it out before your opponent slammed it on your finger tips. Ouch!

Raps - you drew a card and that number was the number of times a person got to slam the edge of the pack of cards down on your knuckles. If you got higher than a 5 they'd start bleeding. Some people would scrape the cards down as they hit you for extra pain

We played tig - although sone called it tag.

Our ‘British Bulldog’ was slightly different. There would be one person then everyone else at one end of the playground who had to run to the other end. The lone person had to catch one, hold them off the ground and shout ‘British Bulldog 1 2 3’ when they would also be a catcher and so on until the last man standing won.

We had two versions, a walking one played on a netball court, home was the semi-circles at each end. Had to catch, lift of the ground and count to three. The other was arms folded and hopping, had to knock someone over.

Do not remember games but do remember the fights from 1st year high school being bullied by older kid. Then getting my own back by beating the crap out of him in year 3 his mum tried to get me kicked out of school haha silly cow. Last 2 years were more fights with the ex best mate who for some reason wanted to beat me up. Still no idea why but after a year of letting him hit me I had enough went straight to his punching arm broke it for him them punched his older brother for the hell of it. Neither came near me ever again. A kind of game I guess called survival
