Inner Tube Water Polo

Two competitive teams are pitted against each other for an exciting game of water polo. The catch: the participants must wear ridiculous costumes and always be inside of their polka dot inner tubes! Sell tickets to this crazy game, pump the music, and be sure to stack the first row of seats with super soakers and water cannons and sell 5- minute slots in the “penalty box” so audience goers can torture their favorite players!

Things to Consider

CHALLENGES TO CONSIDER: Location is everything for this event! You’ll want a pool that has seating for viewing, like those used to watch competitive athletes.
THE BEST TIME TO DO THIS: Anytime works, but warm weather months will be better if you’re hosting at an outdoor pool.
SPONSORING OR PARTNERING ORGANIZATION: The YMCA and public pools used for school competitions are good options.
