One of the best large group excuses for getting wet.

  • Extremely playful & fun

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. In advance, place one or more empty buckets 50m away from a large barrel filled with water.
  2. Form two teams.
  3. Taking turns, equip one team with a cup for each member.
  4. Instruct this team to fill their cups with water from the barrel and transport it as quickly as possible to fill the bucket(s) while attempting to avoid being tagged by the other team.
  5. Announce that after playing several rounds, each team aims to fill their bucket(s) with as much water as possible.
  6. If a person carrying a cup of water is tagged, they must tip the water over their head before returning to the barrel.
  7. Or, if the person holding a cup of water anticipates that they are about to be tagged, they may tip the water on their own head or the body of their opponent.
  8. Play one or more 5 minute rounds before swapping roles.
  9. The team with the most water in their bucket(s) at the end of the game wins.
