Today pools do not merely function as a place to exercise your swimming skills or to laze away your idle afternoon as they can also be used for other water-based recreational activities. This write-up highlights three types of swimming pool games that would certainly make it difficult for you to get your guests or family members out of the pool.

• Whispered Word

This particular swimming pool game necessitates at least two groups that should form a straight line in the water, and each group leader must stand in front and soundlessly read the word written in a provided sheet of paper. Once the game starts, he should inform the next member what the word is, but this should be done under the water. The last member is the only one who is allowed to announce the word out loud.

• Invisible Bottle Search

If you want to experience one of the liveliest and most exhausting swimming pool games of all, then the Invisible Bottle Search would be the perfect option. The game starts by preparing a bottle that has identical colors with the bottom of the swimming pool. Aside from being covered with a white cap, it should also not contain any form of marks or labels on the surface. For it to sink at the bottom of the pool, it must be filled with water. While participants need to have their backs to the pool, they could start searching for the invisible bottle as soon as they hear its splash, indicating that it has already been thrown at the middle of the swimming pool.

• Wet Sweatshirt Game

A nice swimming pool game for everybody would be the wet sweatshirt game. While it would help if majority of the participants are swimmers, kids may also join provided they swim at the shallow areas of the swimming pool. No less than two groups are required, and the first team member should naturally wear the sweatshirt. Once the signal is given, he must swim to the other end of the pool and swim back to where he started, and then pass the sweatshirt to the next person. Whichever group completes the game first is declared as the winner.

On the whole, this just proves that swimming pools are really pleasant places not only to work out, swim and laze around as they are also a great place to socialize and simply have fun with people who are close to your heart.
