    Knots
    Patrol Teams Facing Lines

    Bowline-Sheet Bend Draw

    Equipment: One knotting rope at least 6 feet long for each Scout.

    Method: Each patrol forms two facing lines. Each player holds rope in his right hand, raised above his head. At the word "Go," each races to tie a bowline around his waist, then joins ropes together with sheet bend. Players lean backward with full weight to test knots.

    Scoring: The first patrol to have all knots tied correctly and all Scouts leaning backward wins.

    Variation: Bowline Pull. Players line up in relay formation. Patrols face each other. A line is drawn down the center so that each man is across from a player from another patrol on the other side of the line. On signal, each player ties a bowline around his opponent's waist and tries to pull him across the line. When time is called, the patrol with the most players on its side wins.
