Summer Slam Water Night

Here are the group game stations: (They will run & repeat as long as there is a group who wants to play) 

Leader Instructions:

Step 1: Explain Game

Step 2: Brief Demonstration

Step 3: Play game 

Step 4: Clean Up and repeat step 1-3  with next group

Station 1:

Water Balloon Capture the Flag-

Students are divided into teams (with Orange jerseys on one side) and flags are given to place on their side.  Each student gets two water balloons TOTAL for the entire game. The object of the game is to retrieve the flag and bring it back to your side. Students who get “out” are those who get hit on the other side. They may keep their water balloons and go to jail (Coned Area). Students from Jail may throw balloons (or spray) at opposing team and send them to “their Jail” Students may be released and get a free walk back to their side, but will not receive any more water balloons.

LEADER-Hand out 2 Water Balloons per student (AFTER INSTRUCTIONS) just before game starts. 

Afterward: 2 Min. CLEAN UP

 

Station 2: 

Piranhas-

NEED: As many people as can fit into play area.

The Piranhas are fighting against each other. Each player has 2 strips of orange ribbon stuck in his pocket, but hanging out at least 1 foot. The opponent must try to pull the strips off. The loser is the player who no more strips and thus is “naked to the bone”, a skeleton. All this must be done while staying in play area. Players who get out may strip flesh from around the outside of the boundaries (without going in)

 

Station 3:

Fresh- (Kind of a complicated game, so Double think this one)

 

This is a really difficult game to describe how to play, but once you understand and get the hang of it, it really is a great game. 

Split into two teams and draw out a rectangle playing field (about 98 ft. long, 30 ft wide).  One team starts up one end of the rectangle, the other up the other end.  10 cones are placed in the middle.  The idea is to enter the playing field (rectangle) and 'tag' someone from the other team before they bring back a cone to their side (only 1 cone per trip)....But, you can only tag people if you are "fresher" than them.  The longer you are in the rectangle, the less fresh you are. In other words you can only tag people who are already in the rectangle when you enter. 

Because of the length of the playing field, when you run to tag someone, someone from the other team could then run in and tag you (because they are fresher) so there ends up being a lot of back and forth. 

When you are 'tagged' you are captured by the other team and must stand up their end of the field in 'jail' with your foot on their end zone line.  When other people from your team are captured, they are also captured but can stand shoulder to shoulder to make a line back into the rectangle. 

If you're quick enough, you can 'save' captured team members by running up and tagging them when they are captive, but beware because you have to entering well into enemy territory and risk getting caught/tagged yourself!  The team with the most cones at the end of the game wins.

 

Station 4: 

Mutant and Radio Active Waste (Also called World War Z)- Supplies Needed: Cups & Refill Station (BIG WIN!)

Explain the boundaries. Objective: One mutant starts out with a cup of water (radio active waste) and when he throws it on someone they must join his team.  Last person surviving wins!
