Team Party

After a GREAT VICTORY (City 59 - Burlington 39) on a Saturday afternoon the team congregated in the Commons at the high school for a team party!  First order of business was feeding the hungry group!

And then......games!  Prizes were on the line.  When Coach Showalter showed the prizes they were competitively engaged - USA gear (shorts, shirts, sweatpants).  Game points were kept through out the evening and the higher the score the earlier the chance to get the best stuff.

1)  "Minute it to Win it" Games
First on the docket was a version of "minute it to win it".  3 teams of 6 competed in six different activities.  Each player had to do one activity.  They were such good sports!

Teams were formed

And strategies discussed!

Cup Stacking  Using one hand stack and unstack the cups in one minute.

Henry, Will and Conrad

Teammates cheering them on!

Nose Dive Using only your nose (with vaseline) transfer 5 cotton balls from one bowl to the other.

Henry, Hooper, and Gonzo

Nutcracker Using a candy cane stack 6 nuts on top of each other.

Shamari, Chuck and Jason

Good job, Chuck

Face the Cookie Using face muscles only (no hands) move the cookie from your forehead to your mouth.

Micah, Logan and Jason

And the winner was....Jason!

Many attempts by Logan

Micah was determined.

Stack the Dice With one hand stack 6 dice on the popsicle stick in your mouth.

Nate, Ty, and Naeem

Snowball Toss Using one hand (and one at a time) toss the mini marshmallows into the cup.  Most in the bucket wins.

2) Card/Dice Games  Now each player will be on his own to gain points.  Each group rotated through three games and scores were tallied.

Farkle

Thanks to Judy (my sister) and Jim for the help with the
party!  They were in charge of the Farkle table.

Dutch Blitz

Coach Show was in charge of Dutch Blitz.

Spoons

And I was helping the spoons table and I soon
learned to move away as spoons and players were flying.

Prizes!! The highest scores got to choose first and down the line until everyone got a prize.

What a FUN group of guys!!

What a great evening!
