Water-Balloon Tennis! 2012's Newest Summer Sport!

This summer has been unusually hot on the east coast, so to beat the heat I and my family, created a new game/sport to cool down. Introducing- Water-Balloon Tennis!! Perfect when you aren't quite in the mood for a water-balloon fight, and it's too hot to play real tennis. 

Before Playing You'll Need:
Two people. You can play by yourself, but it's not as much fun! You could also play with more, but unless you have a lot of tennis rackets it would involve a lot of taking turns! 
A tennis racket or two! 
A stash of balloons or water-balloons. 

Gameplay:
Start by filling a water-balloon, or two. 
Stand 5-15 feet apart. 
Pick one person to throw their balloon or throw simultaneously. 
Hit the balloon thrown at you! 
If the balloon doesn't pop, repeat the last step until it does, or until someone doesn't hit it. 



Hints!
-If you want the balloon to pop on impact fill it as full as possible. If you fill it smaller you are likely to get a good number of passes to and fro out of it.
-The closer you stand the more passes back and forth you can get. 
- Underhanded throws and hits are best for achieving optimum numbers of passes. 
-This game is best played with a sprinkler running near by! 
- If tennis rackets are not on hand, a baseball or cricket bat would work well too! 
- This game could be played in a circle (or square or triangle) in a group setting. 


        That's all there is to Water-Balloon Tennis. So have fun playing and getting absolutely soaked!! Enjoy your summer everyone!
