Some games that you can play in your pool. Swimming pool games are very interesting. No fighting, no pushing, no pulling hair, no dunking, no decapitating and no altercation, you get the some ideas - play nice.
Watermelon Polo: Players much divide into two teams. The teams meet in the middle of the swimming pool, and start the game. Once the referee has started the game, both teams must struggle to get the watermelon to the other side of the pool and into the goal. The winning team is the first one to the predetermined number of goals.
Tools Needs: more players, one watermelon, grease or lard, two goals and referee.
Diving Board HORSE: This is good similar to the basketball games of the same name. Firstly, all of the players get in a line. The first participant jumps from the diving board, and then the opponent person tries to do the same jump or dive as well as or better than the first person. If the mimicker does not do as well or perfect, that person gets a letter - “H” then “O” then “R: etc. (the letters of “HORSE”). Once a letter has been ‘awarded’, the next person becomes the leader that everyone must exert to copy. Once a player has spelled out the special word ‘HORSE’, that player is out and has to step aside and wait for a next game. The winner will be one participant left that has not spelled out the word.
Atomic Whirlpool: Have everybody get in the pool and enjoy very much. Have players walk slowly for a couple of minutes, then jog next couple of minutes, then more “run” around the edge next couple of minutes. Finally, tell them to turn around and go the other way. It is very interesting and amazing game.
