We introduce the BMX on the pumptrack of the Sven Nys Cycling Center. All participants get a BMX and protection gear.
4. Archery Tag
Archery Tag is an active arrow and bowgame where you try to shoot out players from the other team on a field with obstacles. The bow is limited in strength, arrows are equipped with a soft tip and every playter gets a face mask. This makes the game very safe.
