Cup games
Cup bowling
Ten paper cups in a triangle, one ball of paper and a long stretch of floor. Ten-pin bowling for people who own lanyards.
- Players
- 2–10
- Time
- 10–20 min
What you need
- 10 paper cups
- A soft ball or a wad of tape-wrapped paper
- Tape for a throwing line
How to play
- Set the cups up as a 4-3-2-1 triangle at the end of a hallway or a cleared table.
- Mark a throwing line a few metres back with tape.
- Each player gets two rolls per frame; count the cups knocked over.
- Play five frames, reset after every turn, and keep score on a sticky note.
Office tip: Underarm rolls only. A thrown ball finds coffee mugs.
