GAME RULES!!
IMPORTANT RULE: DUE TO INJURIES SUSTAINED IN THE PAST, INDIVIDUALS PARTICIPATING AND/OR WATCHING MAY NOT RUSH THE PLAYING FIELD AT ANY TIME. VIOLATION OF THIS RULE WILL RESULT IN AN IMMEDIATE DISQUALIFICATION OF YOUR SCHOOL IN THE CURRENT GAME AND MAY RESULT IN A DISQUALIFICATION OF YOUR SCHOOL FROM FRIENDSHIP GAMES 2008.
The Nasty
Only the top 3 schools from each heat will be awarded points.
1st Place = 10 pts 2nd Place = 7 pts 3rd Place = 5 pts
Objective
The game begins with 5 females on one side of the playing field and 5 males on the other side. The team of 10 will relay from one side of the field to the other delivering a PVC pipe between his or her legs without the use of their hands. The male passes to female and so forth. Only the 1st person may use his or her hands to place the baton into position between their legs. Once the game begins, hands may only be used to pick up a baton if dropped. Once the last person on the team delivers their team's baton, that team is finished and must sit down. At that time, the corresponding referee will raise his or her hand.
Rules
If a player drops the baton during or on the way to the exchange, he or she must return to his or her initial starting point.
No hands can be used. Think of other ways to exchange the baton.
Hands can only be used if the baton is dropped.
Player must cross the line before transferring baton.
Conveyor Belt
Only the top 3 schools from each heat will be awarded points
1st Place = 16.5 pts 2nd Place = 11.5 pts 3rd Place = 6.5 pts
Objective
A team will consist of 4 males and 4 females but only 7 people may be lined up (alternating female and male) on the ground width-wise to act as the conveyer belt. The conveyer belt will then log roll from one end of the field to the other end all the while having their 8th teammate (male or female) on top.
The 8th teammate is rolled continuously to reach the finish line located on the opposite end of the field.
The last person of the conveyer belt continuously switches quickly to the front of the conveyor belt, which is heading towards the finish line. If they do not switch the transported teammate will fall off the conveyor belt and will have to start at the point where he/she fell off.
Rules
Those who compose of the conveyor belt may not use their hands to transport their teammate along the length of the field.
Propelling a teammate is illegal and is very unsafe in transporting a teammate to the finish line.
The transported teammate who falls during the conveyor belt will have to start at the point where he or she fell off.
The transported teammate must lay on his/her back with arms crossed and cannot move while being transported. He/she can only move when they are dropped.
Tidal Wave
Only the top three schools from each heat will be awarded points
1st Place = 14.5 pts 2nd Place = 11.5 pts 3rd Place = 9.5 pts
Objective
A team consists of 10 males and 10 females (alternating male and female) lined up facing the back of each teammate. The team will need to transport water to a bucket that is located at the end of the line. Each team is allowed a time of 2 minutes to retrieve water from the front of the line with the flowerpots and quickly transporting them to the rear where a smaller bucket is located.
Rules
Teammates must face forward while transporting the flowerpots that contain the water.
The only items teams may use to transport water are flower pots that are continuously used and passed over the head to each teammate upon reaching the end of the line.
Flowerpots must be held by the rim and must be passed over the head during transportation.
Once the 2 minutes expires, the referees will measure the buckets and will reward points to the top 3 teams in the heat.

Rules
The groups may not exchange skis until the end of each ski has completely passed the end line.

Upon reaching the front of the line that person will then stand up and be in position to allow teammates to pass through his or her legs while still having arms extended at shoulder height. Corresponding teammates from the rear will then start crawling once the previous person has started crawling. The teammates will start at one end of the field and all of them will have to cross the finish line on the opposite end to complete the game.
Rules
