Games - Horse (Noodle) Races

Pull – Upper Body

This is a fun game to play using "noodle" type floating toys. Each swimmer sits on the noodle as if they were sitting on a horse. Make two teams and send half to the shallow end of the pool. When the judge says "go", one player from each team must jump into the water; get on the "horse" and using only their arms, races to the other end of the pool. The jockey will hand his "horse" to the next player, who then jumps in and rides to the other end. This continues until all the players on one team have had a turn. The first team done is the winner.

Variations: You can make this a 50m race. You can have the swimmers keep going until they end up where they started.
