South of the agricultural fields is an open field bordered by an area of hiking path. On the western and easten ends of the field the two teams each have a plastic base hidden somewhere between 5 and 10 meters inside the forest line in the hiking preserve. The ‘base’ is constructed of camouflaged barriers and the ‘flag’ is located within.
The Black team is on the Eastern side, the Red team is on the Western side.
The general play area is 25 meters into the woods on either side of the field.
The rules are simple - this CTF is held flag-football style, this means that while contact or tackling isn’t against the rules a player is only ‘out’ if their flag is removed. They can return to game play after 15 minutes. Other than that, just don’t be an asshole!
Players taking a break must stand in designated areas and watchers must stay off of the field of play. A set of stands was put at the northern side of the field for those not participating - hot dogs, hamburgers, and other snacks along with refreshments were available.

First Half
Early in the game the Black team took an early lead in gaining ground by sticking to the southern side of the field - where the play area overlaps with the hiking preserve. A three person Black group made up of Sarah Castile, Allison Argent, Mary-Lynette Carter got entrenched along the southern border of play early on by the Red team (Dean Winchester, Chrissy Ashford) and were all pulled out of play after a skirmish saw them lose their advantage and their flags.
Two sprint attempts were made at opposing sides by Kara Danvers and Natasha Romanoff, neither was successful and both lost their flags and were out for 15 minutes.
A group from the Red team (Remy LeBeau, Aranea Highwind, Mordecai Roberts) was seen patrolling the edge of the western forest, while the Black team decided to try out the covert attempt themselves - sending (Lorna Dane, Echo kom Spacekru) to try and by pass them, though unsuccessfully, before the break.
Break
After 30 minutes the game was halted and a cease called for a break for anyone who wanted water or a snack - no players were allowed to move closer than where they already remained. The break lasted for 10 minutes. Teammates were allowed to bring those protecting the flags water and players were allowed to stay in their positions if they chose.
Second Half
Reenergized after the break, the teams went right for the action. The second half only lasted 17 minutes before a break was made with the flag - the majority of those 17 minutes spent on the open field.
The Black team won by covert tactics. Edmund Pevensie utilized the on-going scuffle to slip behind the guards (Lincoln kom Skaikru, Octavia Blake) and make a run for it - through the woods and back over the halfway mark.
The break for it was almost foiled when they were tackled by Lexa kom Trikru near the edge of the eastern woods, but teammate Eretria was close by enough to grab the flag and make it the last few meters to their base - solidifying the win.
