Objective: Be the first team to knock over the opposing team's cups using marshmallows
Materials Needed:
(2) Bags of full sized marshmallows
(2) Folding Tables
(2) Folding Chairs
(12) Paper Coffee Cups
Set Up:
Divide the players into two teams.
Set Up Diagram:
Set up the two table about 20' apart, with the chairs in between the tables. The backs of the chairs should be touching the tables, with the seats of the chairs facing each other. Stack the cups in a pyramid shape on the seat of the chairs.
Game Play:
Give each team one bag of marshmallows. They are to throw the marshmallows at the cups or at the opposing team. The safe area is behind the table. Anyone hit by a marshmallow while they are standing behind the table is not out. Anyone hit with a marshmallow while they are between the tables is out of the game for 30 seconds.
Players are allowed to run in between the tables to get closer to the cups. Players can get as close as they want to their opponent's cups, but only marshmallows can knock a cup over. No kicking the chair either. Players caught illegally knocking over cups are out for 30 seconds, and any cups knocked over are reset.
Players can reset their own cups, but they must be in front of the table while doing so. No hiding under the table while setting up cups. No leaning over the table to set up cups either. The player's body needs to be between the tables. Any player caught setting up cups illegally is out for 30 seconds, and any cups they set up are knocked over again.
Notes:
The games go by pretty quickly. Usually a game is over in under 5 minutes, so the 30 seconds of "out" are huge handicaps. If games go past the 5-minute mark, then I announce "Sudden Death", and any cups knocked over are out, and cannot be set up again. We also play best of 3-games before we switch up the teams or play a new game.
