Game categories: Action / Mini-Olympics / Prize Game


Materials: giant exercise ball, skittles / bowling pins


This is a simple game, but can be great fun for a mini-olympics style event.

Basically, set up a giant size bowling alley in a large area - it could be anywhere! We use our carpark and draw lines using chalk to mark out the allery.

Each player from the team gets chance to bowl the ball down the alley and knock over as many pins as possible.

To add in some extra challenge-ness to the game, players can line up down the sides of the alley and are allowed to kick or push the ball if it comes near them. However, it might be a good idea to limit the number of times they can do this (ie 1 or 2) and make sure they can only do it in one direction (ie forwards).

Hey this idea got my brain going!! Why not use an earthball and really make a giant bowling game? What would you use for pins, though?

We once used 1.25l soft drink bottles and a frozen chicken as the ball. i thought it was gross but the youth loved it. haha

The frozen chicken is definately the way to go. The cheap plastic pins you can get in toy stores work well.

At camp, we used to use an earth ball and roll it down a big hill towards people, who were the pins. :)
