Toilet Roll Relay
Purpose:
An enjoyable icebreaker and team building relay contest where teams
attempt to pass a toilet roll between their legs without breaking the
paper chain.
Materials Needed:
Toilet rolls for each team.
Suitable small prizes.
Introduction:
Working in teams, the young people have all got to contribute
wholeheartedly to be successful in this relay. The loss of
group effectiveness will result in the toilet paper chain breaking
and the team will have to begin again!
In this relay teams have to pass the end of a toilet roll between the
first person's legs and then over the next person's shoulder.
This is then repeated until the last person receives the paper end.
The Contest:
Divide the group into teams of ten or more people people. The
teams then line up at the starting line. A toilet roll is given
to the first person on each team. On "Go" he passes the end of
a toilet roll between the his legs to the next and she then passes the
end over her shoulder to the next person. He must then pass it
between his legs to the next person and so on until the last person
receives the paper end and the team wins!
If the paper chain breaks, then the team must start all over again!
The way to win is to take things very slowly and gently and for each
team member to guard the paper chain, keep it smoothly moving and
ensure that it does not become tensioned. The winning team
justifiably deserves the prize on offer!
God bless.
