EVENT DETAILS
Dizzy Bat
Participants race from one point to a bat, spin around 10 times with head on bat, race back to teammate, slap hands and send them to the bat, continue to all teammates finish. Points awarded by time and finish ranking.
Volleyball
Teams play volleyball. When team scores, other team must remove a Participant from their side of the court. Last team with Participants on the court wins. Points for each Participant on court. If only one Participant, they may play three hits.
Water Balloon Toss
Each group will select partners and face each other in two lines. Balloons will be tossed and if caught, the line moves back one step. If the balloon breaks, the partners are out. Points are scored for how far apart teams make it before their balloons break.
Wet-n-Wild
Each team starts with a sponge and two buckets; one bucket full of water, the other empty. The full bucket is at the head of the line and the empty bucket at the end of the line. The first participant in line starts with the sponge. That participant dunks the sponge in the bucket of water and passes it over his or her head to the next participant in line. The second participant passes the sponge under their legs, the third over their head and so on. When the sponge reaches the last participant, that participant squeezes the water left in the sponge into the empty bucket and runs to the head of the line. Everyone else on the team takes a step back as the participant who was at the end, and is now at the front, soaks the sponge and passes it back to the next participant. Points are awarded for how much water is in the bucket at the of the line when time is called.
Tug-of-War
Teams will compete to pull the rope across a designated line.
Dodge Ball
Each team will try to eliminate all members of the opposing team by hitting them with thrown balls, catching a ball thrown by a member of the opposing team, or forcing them to move outside the court boundaries when a ball is thrown at them.
Semi-Final
Participants in this relay will begin with the 4 legged race, move on to the noodle run (participants will be lined up in groups of three with the first person from each team facing forward and straddling the noodle. The second and third persons in line will stand facing backwards, also straddling the noodle. Once their teammates tag them, the players will weave in and out of the cone course and finish this relay!) and finish with the red ball carry in which all members must have their hands on the ball and successfully move it from one end of the field to the other without dropping it.
