Sports• Nothing more than competitive
physical activity • There are also those called Mind
Games• The goal of ALL games?• Of course physical and mental ability
but mostly ENTERTAINMENT ! ! !• So, let’s have some FUN!
Sports at homeOh come on!• Sports are usually outdoor• You need equipment• They are played in a special field or
terrain• Sometimes weather conditions are
relatedBut if you were isolated and only had
two household items to play a game?
I have to think of new sport…
With only two items? …. Hard one!
Too many items… and the thing is I cannot set rules…
Brainstorming
And that’s how a new idea comes up
You just need:
1. A glass or cup filled with liquid (ex. Water)
2. A mop
Game “Waterloo”Rules:
1. Take aside a mop2. Fill in a glass or cup with some liquid (water, coffee,
alcohol etc)3. Empty a space of 10 meters4. Keep track of time, you only have 3 minutes5. Cover this space up and down, returning From the same track holding with one hand the glass/cup
while hopping6. If you spill some liquid, you have to mop while the other
can continue7. The glass/cup must always get refilled 8. The one that covers the route back and forward 10 times,
WINS!9. Otherwise, it is the one who covered more routes!
Levels of difficulty• Begginers level: water (easy to
clean) and small jumps like hopping (easy to do)
• Medium level: something hot like coffee or tea (not so easy to keep and clean)
and squats (deep sit-downs)
• Advanced level: alcohol (hard to clean)
and combination of hopping and squats
“Waterloo”
How funny and exciting it is
• It is very funny seeing someone jump with a glass of water or cup of coffee or a tequilla in his hand
• You can really workout • In the meanwhile you do some
cleaning• Or if you are in your garden some
watering to your flowers• And of course drink some, it was not
in the rules you cannot drink the
liquid!!!
Spend some time playing “Waterloo”
So, when your friends ask if there is anything to drink, you know the
way!!!
