ZTAG - Positive Active Inclusive Play

Sometimes the best testimony is the simplest one.

"The reason why I like ZTAG is that it's all about teamwork and it's really fun to play!"

That's it. That's the whole point. 💛
Underneath the running and the laughing, kids are learning to work together, to include each other, to be part of something. They just feel the fun — and the teamwork comes with it.
Moments like these are why we do what we do.

How cool is this? 🏈⚡
Former NFL player Eli Penny jumped in to play ZTAG with the kids — proving ZTAG is fun for everyone, from young players to the pros.
Big energy, big smiles, and even bigger connection. 💙

Students at Caliber Schools: Change Makers Academy locked in—moving, thinking, and working together through Pattern Match.

It’s not just a game.
It’s collaboration in motion.
It’s active learning you can actually see.

Every move is a decision.
Every match is teamwork.
Every moment—fully engaged.

Because when learning gets kids on their feet…
connection, focus, and participation follow.

Spencer Alonso and Marco Davis from Beardsley School District are bringing a whole new energy to after-school.

Their goal? Get kids off screens, moving, connecting, and actually excited to be there.

“ZTAG helped us… it’s such a creative way using technology to get our kids running around, engaged, involved—wanting to play, wanting to be in program… chasing each other, playing zombies… even doing the educational portion like math. Either way, they’re out there having fun and fully engaged. It’s become something that’s asked for in our program.”

That’s what a “hot ticket” looks like. 🎟️

What an incredible day at Elk Grove High School! 🎉

Hosted by the California AfterSchool Network, we had the privilege of training more than 100 afterschool educators through an immersive ZTAG Play Day experience.

After learning how to operate the system, teachers immediately jumped into hands-on practice alongside kids and families from the community — and the energy was amazing!

From teamwork and movement to laughter and connection, everyone experienced firsthand how play can bring learning and community together. Seeing educators build confidence while having fun interacting with students and families made the day truly special.

Thank you to all the teachers, kids, families, and partners who made this event such a success. We’re excited to see ZTAG continue making an impact in afterschool programs and communities across California!
