Sock Wrestling

Action games, Mini olympic games, Prize games, Small group games

Everyone is to have socks on and no shoes. They are to stand inside a designated area, and when a leader says go, they all must wrestle each other to get thier socks of.

Can be played so that whoever is the last one with a sock on wins, or whoever has the most socks at the end wins.

Thanks Hayley, but where is your youth group?

Yes, we had a youth leader who introduced this game and we had lots of fun playing it. Somehow we never sustained major injuries either.

Actually, I believe Peter invented this game when he got sick of Andrew, Judas & the other boy's stinky socks, and tried to throw them into the Sea of Galilee.

A good variation is to get some orange buildes plastic, squeeze on 2 litres of detergent and add a bucket of water. It makes sock wrestling a little slippery and messy but a whole lot more fun.

This is also really fun if you can take one of the youth aside ahead of time, and have them slip a small coin or candy (not that you'd want to eat it afterwards), or anything small into one of their socks without telling the others. Then, you tell them that they not only need to get everyone else's socks off, but the winner is the one who finds the coin! Basically it just adds to the chaos! :)

Love the detergent idea- i get my kids to play this game, but with all my dirty washing. Saves on housework!

This game as fantastic! We played it the other night and it was a big hit. All the boy's just love it and you would be hard pressed to get the girls out of it either. Rippa! PS. this game is that fine tuned, i think it must have been around since Adam and Eve.
