Gym class drill: farmer's tag

Suitable for the following techniques: tag game

The farmer is a ticker and a cow is a runner.
The game starts, the first farmer gets off the bench and hits a mat or drum and shouts I AM THE BOER!!!
Now all the cows know who the ticker is.
The object of the game is for the farmer to catch a cow.
The farmer does this by ticking off a cow.
Did the farmer tap a cow?
Then the farmer also becomes a cow and the one who has been tapped must sit on the bench.
So there is a new ticker every time.
On the bench is a pass-through system.
This means that the pupil who sits on the bench the longest, may return to the field when someone is finished.
