A method is presented which generates a complete set of conserved quantities in classical non-Abelian gauge theory. The set is complete in the sense that its specification completely determines the time evolution of the system. The usual space-time symmetries are shown to belong to the set. The method is also applied to the anharmonic oscillator in an appendix.
