BASKETBALL
The whole team stand on pedestals, the first member takes a ball and passes it along the line in a series of proper “basketball” passes until it reaches the last member (the shooter) who has to try and score. After each ball the team members move along a place and change rolls with that player. The game continues in that fashion for a set period of time. The different nets are worth different points, the team with the highest score wins.
(Dry Game)
HATS ON
The first member of the team puts the hat on; other team members fill the hat with water via sponges. The person with the hat goes over the hurdles and places “any water left in the hat” in their team bin, returns over the hurdles and gives the hat to the next team member and so on, until all the team have been or the time is up. The team with the most water in their bin wins.
(Wet Game)*2
WHITE WATER RAFTING
The team leader positions half their team on one side of the river and half on the other side. One person sits in the inflatable boat, which is connected to each bank by ropes. The object of the game is to transport precious items of treasure from one side of the river to the other. At each end the person in the boat must change with a new person. The amount of treasure collected will determine the points gained. The river will be very wet and filled with foam. Believe it… these boats really fly across the surface.
(Wet Game/Foam) *4 but the water is contained.
WATERY SWAMP
First competitor goes over the hurdles, and collects a bucket, fills the bucket with water from the bin and returns over the hurdles, places the water in team collection bin, repeat process until all team members have gone or 3 minutes are up. Team with most water in the collection bin wins.

CHINESE LAUNDRY
In relay fashion, each team member proceeds through the inflatable mangle to the large inflatable washing machine. They jump into the washing machine amongst the soapy bubbles and try to find a coloured ball depicting his team colour. They then go back to base via the mangle and drops the ball into the team bin and the next team member follows the same course. The team with the most balls in their container at the end of the game are the winners.
(Wet Game/Foam) *5
SLIPPERY SLOPE

Next team member goes over slope with assistance if needed from anchorman and rope, collects one item from the team bin and races back over slope with assistance if necessary. All competitors must come down the slope on their bottom or a penalty will be awarded. Place the item in team collection bin at start and next competitor goes, repeating process until either all the team have competed and returned with 12 items or team with most items after 3 minutes.

NETBALL

CASTLE DOOM
The first team member stands at his or her own water pool and one (The princess) waits before their own castle door. All the other team members stand on stepping-stones.

The team that give their princess the most water after three minutes wins.

THE JUMBLE SPRINT

The team to finish first or get the furthest along the course after three minutes wins.

GREEK OLYMPICS
In relay fashion, teams have to complete their giant connect 4. Sounds easy……….but ………the other team can of course BLOCK your moves. The first team member takes a playing piece and goes across the inflatable. When they get to the other side they play it on the giant board and race back to the start to tag the next member, this continues for a set time or until the a team gets 4 in a row. The fastest team wins.

The team with the most bombs in their own team bin at the end of three minutes wins. Only balls that are caught count.
