Water Wars

Game: Water Fight Frenzy

Setup:

  1. Gather all the water weapons you can find—hoses, water guns, water balloons, cups, buckets, and anything else you can use to hold and throw water.
  2. Split the group into two teams.

How to Play:

  1. Once the teams are ready, start the water fight! Use everything at your disposal to soak the other team—whether it’s by spraying with water guns, throwing water balloons, or dousing each other with buckets or cups of water.
  2. There are no winners or points in this game. The goal is simple: get as wet as possible!

Winning:

There are no winners—everyone just gets drenched and has fun! It’s all about the splashy chaos and cooling off on a hot day.

This is the ultimate no-rules water battle that’s perfect for letting loose and enjoying a good time with friends!

Cup To Cup

ndfold everyone in the line! This makes it trickier and funnier as players fumble to pass and pour the water.

Supplies: Two buckets, plastic cups

Setup:

  1. Place a full bucket of water at the start of the line in the grass, with the first player sitting just behind it.
  2. Have the rest of the team sit in a straight line behind the first player.
  3. The last player in the line should face the opposite direction, so they’re back-to-back with the player in front of them.
  4. Place an empty bucket (either smaller or with a halfway mark) in front of the last player.

How to Play:

  1. Give the first player an empty plastic cup. They must dip the cup into the full bucket and pass it backward over their head to the next player.
  2. Each player then passes the cup over their head to the next person, continuing until it reaches the last player, who dumps the water into the empty bucket.
  3. Pass the now-empty cup back up to the first player to repeat the process.

Winning:

The first team to fill their bucket to the marked line wins!

Adult Twist:

For an added challenge, blindfold everyone in the line! This makes it trickier and funnier as players fumble to pass and pour the water.

Water Bottle Toss

Supplies: Kiddie pool (or hose), empty plastic bottles, empty plastic bucket

Setup:

  1. Fill a kiddie pool with water (or have a hose nearby).
  2. Place an empty bucket on the opposite side of the yard.
  3. Put one or several empty water bottles in the kiddie pool.

How to Play:

  1. A player fills a water bottle from the kiddie pool or hose.
  2. They then toss the filled bottle across a line of teammates, passing it down the line toward the empty bucket.
  3. Each team member should be spaced far enough apart that they have to toss the bottle with some force, causing it to spin and possibly splash water, making the game more fun and messy!
  4. The last player in line pours any remaining water from the bottle into the empty bucket and then sends the empty bottle back to the starting player to refill.

Winning:

The first team to fill their bucket to the marked line wins!

Adult Twist:

Use larger 2-liter soda bottles instead of regular water bottles, making it more challenging to throw and creating bigger splashes!

Bucket Toss

Supplies: Kiddie pool filled with water, a small bucket for each teammate, and one larger bucket for the end of each team’s line.

Setup:

  1. Have one player from each team stand in or beside the kiddie pool with a bucket.
  2. Line up the rest of their team in a straight line extending away from the kiddie pool, with each player holding a small bucket. Space them out so they need to toss water to the next person rather than simply pouring it.
  3. Place an empty large bucket at the end of each line behind the last player.

How to Play:

  1. The first player in the line scoops water from the kiddie pool using their bucket.
  2. They then toss the water to the next teammate, who catches as much as they can in their own bucket.
  3. This continues down the line until the last player pours whatever water they caught into the team’s large end bucket.
  4. The empty buckets are passed back to the starting player to refill, and the process repeats.

Winning:

The first team to fill their large bucket to the marked line wins!

Sponge Toss

Supplies: Two plastic buckets, large sponges

Setup:

  1. Place a bucket full of water on one side of the yard and an empty bucket on the opposite side.
  2. Have each team line up their players between the two buckets. Once everyone is lined up, they must stay in their assigned spot and cannot move from it.
  3. The first player on each team should be next to the full bucket, and the last player should be by the empty bucket.

How to Play:

  1. The first player dunks the sponge in the full bucket, soaking up as much water as possible.
  2. They then toss the sponge to the next player, who passes it along the line until it reaches the final player by the empty bucket.
  3. The last player wrings out the sponge into the empty bucket and passes the empty sponge back up the line to start again.

Winning:

The first team to fill their bucket to the marked line wins!

Adult Twist:

Place the buckets much further apart, requiring players to toss the sponge with more force, making it harder to keep the sponge from dropping or spilling water!

Cash Or Splash

Game: Water Cup Cash

Supplies: Dixie cups, a table, tape, Sharpie (or stickers), water

Setup:

  1. Line up a row of Dixie cups on a table.
  2. Place a sticker or piece of tape on a handful of cups (about 10 out of 100 cups). On the cups with a sticker, write a dollar amount ranging from $1 to $10.
  3. Fill all of the cups with water, making sure the cups with the stickers are mixed in so that players can’t see which cups have money under them.

How to Play:

  1. Players take turns choosing one cup at a time.
  2. After choosing a cup, the player looks at the bottom of the cup.
  • If there’s money on the bottom (from the sticker or tape), they win that amount and toss the water to the side.
  • If the bottom is empty, they pour the water on their head and return to the back of the line.
  1. Continue playing until all the money has been found.

Winning:

There’s no ultimate winner in this game. The goal is simply to earn the most money by finding the cups with money underneath them! Whoever manages to collect the most cash by the end is the “richest” player.

This game is a fun, suspenseful way to get soaked while also adding a bit of competition to the mix. It’s perfect for a water-filled afternoon!

Water Balloon Volleyball 

Supplies: Water balloons, outdoor volleyball net, beach towels

Setup:

  1. Set up the volleyball net in an open outdoor space.
  2. Split your group into two even teams, one on each side of the net.
  3. Give each pair of players a beach towel, ensuring each player is holding one side of the towel.

How to Play:

  1. The game begins with one team receiving a water balloon.
  2. The team must place the water balloon in their beach towel (held by two players), and then use their arms to catapult the towel and launch the balloon over the net to the opposing team.
  3. The other team attempts to catch the water balloon in their towel and return it over the net in the same way.
  4. Play continues as teams volley the water balloon back and forth, trying to prevent it from hitting the ground or popping.
  5. If a team fails to catch the balloon or the balloon breaks when hit the ground, the other team earns a point. If a team scores an ace (the opposing team drops or breaks the balloon on the serve), they get two points.

Winning:

The first team to reach 10 points wins the game!

Adult Version:

Instead of using water balloons, use full-size balloons to make the game more challenging and reduce the chance of the balloon breaking too easily.

Sponge Run

Supplies: Two plastic buckets, large sponges (or a kiddie pool)

Setup:

  1. Place a bucket full of water (or a kiddie pool) on one side of the yard and an empty bucket on the opposite side.
  2. Give each player a sponge and have them stand by the full bucket or pool.

How to Play:

  1. Players dunk their sponges in the water to soak up as much as possible.
  2. They then place the sponge on their head and must hold it there as they run to the empty bucket, trying to keep as much water in the sponge as they can.
  3. Once they reach the empty bucket, they wring out the sponge into it, then run back to the starting point to repeat the process.

Winning:

The first person to fill their bucket to the marked line wins!

Adult Twist:

Players must balance the sponge on their head without holding it. If the sponge falls off, they must return to the starting point and try again. This adds a challenging twist to keeping the sponge steady while walking!

Pool Defender

Game: Ball Transfer Challenge

Supplies: Kiddie pool, plastic balls (like those small play balls), large 5-gallon buckets, rope or something to mark a “line”

Setup:

  1. Fill a kiddie pool with water and place it at the center of a 10-foot circle perimeter (you can mark the circle with a rope or anything that marks the boundary).
  2. Set up two teams of four players, with each team having two players inside the kiddie pool and two players outside the circle.
  3. Each team outside the pool should have a large 5-gallon bucket filled with plastic balls, and each team inside the pool needs to be ready to transfer those balls into their bucket.

How to Play:

  1. The players inside the kiddie pool must scoop or toss the balls out of the pool and pass them to their teammates standing outside the circle.
  2. The outside teammates must catch the balls and try to toss them into their own large 5-gallon bucket without stepping inside the circle.
  3. Teams continue transferring balls back and forth until all the balls are out of the kiddie pool and into their bucket.
  4. You can add a twist by setting a time limit to see which team can get the most balls in their bucket before the timer runs out!

Winning:

The team with the most balls in their bucket at the end of the game (or when the timer runs out) wins!

Adult Version:

Make the challenge more difficult by increasing the distance between the pool and the bucket, or by requiring players to use only one hand to pass the balls!

This game combines teamwork, speed, and a lot of water splashing for a fun summer challenge!

Water Balloon Dodgeball

Supplies: Water balloons (auto-fill for faster filling), a large bucket, tape or plastic cones

Setup:

  1. Fill a bunch of water balloons and place them in a large bucket in the middle of the yard. Use slightly larger balloons that are likely to break on impact.
  2. Use tape or cones to divide the yard into two sides, with the bucket of balloons in the middle.
  3. Split players into two teams, each on one side of the line.

How to Play:

  1. On “Go,” players race to the bucket, grab water balloons, and retreat to their side of the yard.
  2. Players throw water balloons at each other across the line, aiming to get their opponents out. Rules:
  • A player is out if they’re hit by a water balloon that actually breaks on them (not if it just splashes on the ground).
  • If a water balloon bounces off a player without breaking, they can pick it up and continue playing, or, if you prefer, you can rule that any hit means they’re out.
  • If a player catches an unbroken water balloon, the thrower is out. The catcher may also “revive” a teammate who’s on the sideline.
  • If a player attempts to catch a balloon but it breaks on them, they’re out.

Winning:

The game continues until one team has the last player standing, making them the winning team.

Adult Twist:

To stay in the game, the water balloon must break upon impact with the player—no simply bouncing off! This makes dodging and aiming more strategic and challenging.

Water Balloon Hot Potato

Supplies: Water balloons, a way to play music

Setup:

  1. Fill up several water balloons.
  2. Have everyone sit in a circle on the grass or in an open area.
  3. Give one person in the circle a water balloon to start.

How to Play:

  1. Start playing music while the players pass the water balloon around the circle.
  2. At random intervals, stop the music (without looking at the circle to avoid knowing who has the balloon).
  3. The player holding the water balloon when the music stops must pop it above their head, and they are out of the game.
  4. If there’s confusion about who “has” the balloon when the music stops (e.g., two players are holding it, or one player threw it just after the music stopped), have those players play rock, paper, scissors to decide who is out.
  5. Continue the game until only one person remains in the circle.

Winning:

The last person left in the circle, who hasn’t been eliminated, wins!

Adult Version:

  1. Move the circle a few feet apart so that players have to toss the water balloon to the next person.
  2. If someone makes a terrible throw and the balloon doesn’t reach the next person, that person is out.
  3. If a player catches the balloon but drops it, the person who dropped the balloon is out.
  4. Keep playing until only one person remains!

Splish Splash

Game: Splash the Bucket

Supplies: Kiddie pool, small bucket, timer (or stopwatch)

Setup:

  1. Place a kiddie pool filled with water in one part of your yard.
  2. Position a small bucket about 3 feet away from the edge of the kiddie pool.
  3. Fill the small bucket halfway with water to give players a baseline to work with.

How to Play:

  1. Players stand in the kiddie pool filled with water and get ready to splash.
  2. When you say “Go,” the player must use only their hands to splash water from the pool into the small bucket.
  3. The goal is to fill the bucket as much as possible within one minute.
  4. Players can scoop or splash the water, but they cannot pick up the bucket or move it closer to the pool.
  5. If you’re playing with teams, players can take turns, with each person splashing water into the bucket until the time is up.

Winning:

  • The player (or team) who manages to get the most water in the bucket in one minute wins!
  • If playing with teams, you can tally the total amount of water each team splashed into the bucket to determine the winner.

Team Version:

If you have teams, each player can take turns, one at a time, splashing water into the bucket. The team with the most water in the bucket at the end of a set time wins.

Adult Version:

For adults, add more challenge by increasing the distance between the pool and the bucket or using a larger bucket that requires more splashing effort.

This game is a splash-filled, competitive challenge that works great for both individual and team play!

Kiddie Pool Toe Diving

Supplies: Kiddie pool, diving rings, and other small pool toys

Setup:

  1. Fill a kiddie pool with water and add a variety of small toys, diving rings, and other fun items.

How to Play:

  1. When the game begins, players must use only their toes to fish out as many items from the kiddie pool as possible.
  2. They can’t use their hands—only their feet!

Winning:

The winner can be either the first person to retrieve an item or the player who collects the most items by the end of the game.

Adult Twist:

Blindfold the players to make it even more challenging and fun!

Water Balloon Toss 

Supplies: Water balloons (auto-fill for faster filling)

Setup:

  1. Pair up all players and have them stand in two straight lines facing each other.
  2. Give each pair a water balloon (or a sponge if playing with young kids).

How to Play:

  1. Have someone count to three, and on “three,” everyone tosses their water balloon to their partner.
  2. If the partner catches the balloon or if it’s dropped but doesn’t break, they take one step back (keeping the teams in a straight line).
  3. If the balloon pops while being caught or thrown, or if it’s dropped and breaks, that team is out.
  4. Continue tossing the water balloons and taking steps back, gradually increasing the distance between partners.

Winning:

The last team remaining with an unbroken water balloon wins!

Adult Twist:

In the adult version, teams must catch the balloon without it breaking, even if it doesn’t pop. If the balloon hits the ground or is dropped, they’re out—making it harder to stay in the game!

Ultimate Water Balloon

That sounds like an amazing new game! Combining ultimate frisbee, a water balloon toss, and some added excitement is bound to create a unique and fun experience.

Sprinkler Red Light Green Light 

Game: Shark and Minnows with a Sprinkler Twist

Setup:

  1. Set up a sprinkler somewhere in the yard that’s positioned to get players wet.
  2. Have kids line up on one side of the yard as “minnows” and choose one player to be the “shark,” who will start in the middle of the yard.

How to Play:

  1. The shark stands in the middle of the yard and shouts, “Swim across!” or a similar cue.
  2. The minnows must then run across the yard to the other side, trying to avoid getting tagged by the shark.
  3. If a minnow is tagged by the shark, they become a shark and join the shark in the middle for the next round.
  4. The sprinkler adds an extra layer of danger! If a minnow gets hit by the sprinkler while crossing the yard, they also become a shark and join the chase.
  5. Play continues until only one minnow remains, who becomes the next shark.

Winning:

The last minnow standing wins and becomes the shark for the next round.

This is a great way to add a little more excitement and cooling fun to a classic game!

Slide Down

Game: Slide and Splash Challenge

Supplies: Large bucket of water, plastic cups, playground slide, small bucket of water, timer

Setup:

  1. Place a large bucket of water at the bottom of the playground stairs.
  2. Put two plastic cups at the bottom of the stairs, ready for players to fill.
  3. At the bottom of the slide, set up a small empty bucket that players will need to fill with the water they carry.
  4. Mark a starting line at the base of the stairs where players will begin.

How to Play:

  1. When you say “Go,” the player must fill one of the plastic cups with water from the large bucket at the bottom of the stairs.
  2. After filling the cup, the player races up the stairs to the top of the slide.
  3. Once at the top, they must slide down the slide while holding the filled cup of water.
  4. At the bottom of the slide, the player must dump the water into the small bucket.
  5. The player continues to repeat the process: fill the cup, race up the stairs, slide down, and dump the water.

Winning:

  • The player wins if they fill the small bucket with water before one minute is up.
  • If they spill too much water during the slide, they have to try again, but every successful trip up and down gets them closer to filling the bucket.

Team Version:

  • If you’re playing with teams, have each player take turns. The team that fills the small bucket first (or with the most water) wins.

Adult Version:

For adults, increase the challenge by using larger cups, requiring the player to fill the cup to a specific level before starting, or increasing the distance they must race.

This game combines speed, precision, and a bit of water fun, making it a perfect challenge for hot days at the playground!

JELENA OSTAPENKO WEIGHT GAIN: ALL ABOUT JELENA OSTAPENKO

Jelena Ostapenko, the fiery Latvian tennis star, has grabbed headlines for her powerful game and stunning upset victory at the 2017 French Open. But recently, discussions around her have shifted to focus on her body type. Let’s move beyond that. This is about Jelena Ostapenko, the athlete, her journey, and her achievements on the court. We’ll delve into her career highlights, playing style, and what makes her such a compelling competitor, all while acknowledging that her physique is just one aspect of a much more interesting story.

WHO IS JELENA OSTAPENKO?

Jeļena (Aļona) Ostapenko, born on June 8, 1997, is a professional tennis player from Latvia. She achieved her highest WTA singles ranking of world No. 5 in March 2018 and reached No. 32 in doubles in June 2017. Ostapenko made history by winning the 2017 French Open women’s singles title, becoming the first Latvian to win a Grand Slam and the first unseeded player to claim the French Open since 1933. She has also been an active member of the Latvian Fed Cup team. In her career, Ostapenko has won seven ITF singles titles and eight ITF doubles titles. She also triumphed in the junior women’s singles event at the 2014 Wimbledon Championships. Ostapenko is known for her aggressive playing style, particularly her powerful vertical shots.

FAN RESPONSE TO KIRSTEN STORMS WEIGHT GAIN 

There are many mixed opinions about this athlete’s unique appearance. However, most people think that she has a toned body and this is appropriate for her profession. Only a few criticized her appearance. 

“I agree that Ostapenko is not actually “fat”. But it’s pretty obvious that she’s not exactly disciplined about her food and training regimen. And yeah, the cut of her clothes aren’t flattering, either.

Take Iga’s ON kits, for example. She looks a good deal more athletic in them than she did in Asics this year.”

“She’s not fat. 🙄 She might not have a svelte body type but her movement is still very good and I don’t think I’ve ever seen Jelena get tired in a match before.”

“There’s nothing like a case of beer and a few bags of chips after a good practice session!

Let her enjoy her meals, and her snacks.”

“& TV adds pounds to their physique. Like I thought Petra Martic looked slim on tv but in person, she looked really really thin. Im just using Petra btw as an example coz I really like how she looks on tv .

“

“She’s a little too big maybe, but I actually think it works for her. I’m the first to be critical of players with poor discipline that are completely unfit and thus affects their performance. However I can understand some of the benefits for her , as others have mentioned she has more weight to put behind the ball, and it doesn’t seem to affect her movement much. She also has great stamina and doesn’t seem to fizzle out in long matches, possibly due to her extra “ reserves”. Like someone else said I think she might be doing a Bartoli.”

“Yeah. Love those fat shaming threads… it is always the big BUT.

no you are trying to be offensive, you have chosen the word with negative connotations

And you opened thread judging someone appears someone clearly does not have any issues regarding her weight

anyway she is not fat and even if she was that is none of our business”

“She always was. Fat and annoying.”

DID JELENA OSTAPENKO REALLY GAIN WEIGHT?

Jelena Ostapenko’s weight gain has been a topic of discussion among some fans. However, she seems unfazed and has remained largely injury-free. Some speculate that her love of sweets, evident from her active baking hobby showcased on her second Instagram account, might be a contributing factor.

Her social media posts featuring dessert preparation highlight her passion for baking and enjoying delicious food. However, her continued success on the court suggests a good balance between diet and fitness. This is further supported by her recent interview where she discussed her health and training routine with her coach.

With over ten years of professional experience, Jelena clearly understands what works best for her in terms of weight management and overall well-being. Her recent return to the top ten rankings and victory at the Adelaide International Tournament serve as testaments to her competence and fitness. Her ongoing participation and achievements in international tournaments further demonstrate her fitness and readiness to compete at the highest level.

“Honestly, yes, because everyone expected you almost to win every single tournament, which is crazy because you are still a human and you cannot feel great every day. Yeah, I needed some time to get used to it,” Jelena Ostapenko said. “Of course, a lot of attention from everywhere outside the court, like photo shoots and all those kinds of things. You became more popular in your country. Everybody is watching you. Of course, it’s great, but I needed some time to get used to it,” she added. 

It seems that this statement is an expression of opinion about fans’ high expectations about her performance on the field as well as her life or appearance off the field.

DID JELENA OSTAPENKO HAVE DIABETES?

Latvian tennis star Jelena Ostapenko’s health has been a topic of curiosity among fans, with rumors circulating about a possible Type 1 diabetes diagnosis. However, Ostapenko herself has never addressed any health concerns in interviews.

While athletes with Type 1 diabetes can compete at the highest level, like German tennis star Alexander Zverev, who manages the condition despite being diagnosed at a young age, such a diagnosis would likely require some level of public acknowledgement due to the constant management involved.

Therefore, the lack of any mention from Ostapenko suggests that the Type 1 diabetes rumors might be unfounded.

JELENA OSTAPENKO PERSONAL LIFE

Jelena Ostapenko was born in Riga to Jevgēnijs Ostapenko, a former Ukrainian footballer who played for Metalurh Zaporizhzhia, and Jeļena Jakovļeva, a Latvian-Russian tennis coach and former player. She has one half-brother, Maksim, who resides in the United States. Introduced to tennis at the age of five by her mother, Ostapenko idolized Serena Williams as she grew up. Alongside tennis, she began dancing at a young age, eventually competing in Latvia’s national ballroom dance championships. Despite her early interest in dance, she decided to focus on tennis at the age of 12, crediting her years of dancing for her coordination and footwork skills. Fluent in Latvian, Russian, and English, Ostapenko’s legal name is Jeļena, but she is known as Aļona among family and friends. Initially named Jeļena because her parents’ desired name, Aļona, was not on the Latvian name calendar, she uses her legal name professionally to avoid administrative confusion.

JELENA OSTAPENKO TENNIS CAREER

Jelena Ostapenko, a Latvian tennis star, has had a remarkable career with both highs and lows.

Ostapenko’s strong start to 2024 has seen her win two WTA 500 titles and return to the top 10 in the singles rankings. She also reached her first Grand Slam final in doubles at the Australian Open. Her career continues to be one of exciting potential and impressive achievements.

That same year, her exceptional improvement was solidified with the WTA Tour Most Improved Player of the Year award.
