Description

An icebreaker game, ideal for when you have new members in your group. a great way of getting to know everyone's names while having fun!

Resources

Tennis Ball
Have the group stand in a circle facing the center. Then, go around the circle and have each person say their first name.

Instructions

How to Play: Explain that the tennis ball is a “time bomb.” When someone throws it in the group, they only have 2 seconds to say someone else’s name and throw the ball to them. If they can’t remember anyone’s name in 2 seconds, the “bomb” explodes, and they are “out.” Have participants who forget names step to form an outside circle.

As the inner circle gets smaller, the group will continue tossing the tennis ball until they know everyone’s name in the group. You can offer a prize for the last ones standing who learned their peers’ names and didn’t get “blown up” by the tennis ball time bomb.
