Official Rules: Boat Race

  1. Teams. Two equal teams side by side. Same drink, same size cup, for everyone.
  2. Go. On the whistle, the first player on each team finishes their drink.
  3. Cup on the head. Finished? Turn the empty cup upside down on your head. It stays there.
  4. Next. Your teammate may not touch their drink until your cup is on your head.
  5. False start? Refill, and start again when the cup is on the head.
  6. Drips? It wasn't finished. Refill and drink again.
  7. Uneven teams. One player on the smaller team goes twice.
  8. First team with every cup on every head wins.
