Olympic Style
Swimming Pool Games
The Olympic-Style Swimming Pool Games will have your friends cat fighting and trying to hold on to oiled-up melons. Pure entertainment.
Once your peeps get to the party, divide your group in half to create the two teams. For each of the teams, at least 4 players must participate in each event.
If you have a large group, you can create more teams and then play the events in single elimination tournament fashion. Here’s a tournament bracket (pdf) to make it easy for you.
Once your teams are created, ask them to come up with team names!
