GAMES

Games
Beer Pong
2-4 players.
Youll want to set up the table first.
Next get out your cups (10 for each
person).
Youll want to set them up into a
triangle.
Per your beverage, youll pour in a little
in each cup.
You will then take a ping pong ball and
begin by throwing it in to your
opponents cup.
Try to be the first person to clear the
other persons cups.
Ladder Ball
2-4 players
Youll take all the supplies out of the
bag.
Set up the fixtures to where each has
three levels and is held together by a
base.
Once both fixtures are assembled, split
the balls in half.
This game is played by throwing your
balls underhand to the other fixture.

Corn Hole
2-4 players
You will set up the boards about 27 feet
apart.
You then will split up the bags per
person/team.
Scoring is simple. After all bags have
been thrown, a bag remaining on the
board is worth 1 point. A bag that went
in the hole is worth 3 points. Add up
how many points you earned and
compare them to your opponents. Equal
points cancel each other out so that only
one team can score per round. For
example, if you scored 5 points and your
opponent scored 3, you will add 2
points to your overall score and your
team will throw first in the next round. If
you scored 6 points and your opponent
scored 6 as well, there will be no points
awarded and whoever threw first in the
last round will throw first again.

Games
A game is won when a team reaches 21
points with a lead of 2 or more points.
The first team to win 2 games wins the
match.
Of course, you can play with your own
rules. For example, some play with the
rule that you must reach 21 exactly. If
you go over in points, your score is
automatically reduced to 11 and play
continues. Another variation is to count
every point (no negation of equal
points) and see who has the most points
at the end of 13 rounds.
