4. Niagara Falls - Team lines up in front of a kiddy pool and pass a soaked sponge over heads.
5. Red, White, and Blue beach ball kick (soccer dribble with red, white, and blue beach balls)
6. American Diner - 6 cups on a tray filled with water from pool, balance while racing to bucket and dump in.
