Then, place the empty bucket on the other side of your playing area. Use a marker to mark a fill line on each of the empty buckets, making sure it&#8217;s the same on each team&#8217;s buckets.<\/li>\n<li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\"><strong>CUPS.\u00a0<\/strong>Before the game, you will need to poke holes into the cups so they will leak water.

Move the empty buckets closer depending on how many players there are on each team, if necessary. Seat each player about a foot from each other, all facing one direction.<\/li>\n<li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\"><strong>FILL AND PASS.<\/strong>\u00a0When you say, &#8220;Go,&#8221; the first person in each team will fill a cup with water \u00a0and start passing the cup over their head to the next player. The cup will be passed down the line over their heads until it reaches the empty bucket. The final player will pour the cup in and then send the cup back. The players can send the empty cup back to the starting point in whatever way they want, but they can&#8217;t move from their sitting position even if the cup rolls out of reach.<\/li>\n<li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\"><strong>FILL THE BUCKET.<\/strong>\u00a0Keep this going until one team has filled their bucket past the bucket&#8217;s fill line.

The Grow Games and Icebreakers App has a library of more than 500+ games, and it\u2019s always growing! There are team games, party games, screen games, team games, outdoor games, and indoor group games for youth ministry. All the games you could ever want, basically.<\/p>\n<p>This app is\u00a0<strong>built for kids and youth ministry.\u00a0<\/strong>All of our games are created by church leaders and ministry-tested!<\/p>\n<p>Plus,<strong> the games are fully customizable.<\/strong>\u00a0Every game comes with graphics, instructions, and a place for you to add your notes, photos, videos, game categories, and game ratings. You can even submit your own original games if you have some you\u2019re proud of!<\/p>\n<p>The app also comes with\u00a0<strong>handy tools<\/strong>\u00a0you might want to use during a game (or a sermon) like scoreboards, clocks, a prize wheel, polling capabilities, and a random name chooser.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243;
