Thanks for that ATC, that was good to watch. We do a sort of tag team thing where you get 4 people (1 on each corner of a pretty small square) and 1 in the middle. When the instructor gives the command one of the 4 on the corners can yell "me" and run in and attack the guy in the middle, and whenever the instructor yells "change" (which varies in time from 10 seconds to 2 minutes) another one of the 4 can yell and swap but the original guy has to stay in the ring the whole time, so its always one on one but the attacker changes randomly. Its great fun, great cardio for the guy in the middle, good practice fighting while very fatigued, and keeps everyone on their toes. Usually it becomes quite tactical because any of the 4 can jump in in any order so its very random the angles you get attacked from, and the length of the round changes each time also, which keeps it interesting.

We do something we call Bull in the Ring
One guy is in the middle of the ring, and the rest of the class is standing around the ring. Every 15 - 20 seconds the attacker swaps for the next person in order.

One time we did a variation where the class was jogging around the ring, and our Kyosanim called out a name to change attackers.

The kids really love it.

Amen to that. Its such a shame, tkd has so much potential but bounce, bounce......................kick bounce....bounce etc pretty much sums it up most of the time unfortunately. This vid, however, was great to watch.

Not sure about the rules but it looks like you must engage and try to score as much as possible with your time. You may only have a limited amout of time when in the ring. It also looks like the strat is to get a miss match some how.

Hope it catches on.

Yeah, I agree. It definetely looks like the idea is to get as many points as quickly as you can. They certainly dont muck around, they get straight into it.
