Something completely different is an Olympiad that takes place blindfolded - a totally new experience!
Procedure
Division
The youth group will be divided into groups of 5
Equipment
1 triangular cloth per group (for the blind player), 1 running sheet (see suggestion!), writing materials, bib numbers 1-20 if necessary (depending on the number of groups)
Progression of the game
At the beginning, each group lines up at the same numbered post: Group 1 at post 1, Group 2 at post 2, etc.
Together with the post leader, the details for the run sheet are first given. After completing the item, the whole group moves on to the next item (next highest number). After completing post 20, the groups start again at post 1. The posts are arranged in a circle.
Scoring
The max score achievable at each post is 10 points. Although a scoring option is attached to each game proposal, these scores are not binding. It is crucial that the post leader scores all groups equally.
Post count
It will take about 2 ½ hours to complete the 20 proposed posts. So the post count can be adjusted to the time available. In smaller groups, a post leader may take on 2 or 4 posts, depending on whether they are consecutive or scattered. For large events, all posts can be run twice.
Division
Depending on the event, existing JS groups battle it out, or new groups are formed by the leader dividing all JSers into five age groups (by year). If the leader then chooses one player from each of as many groups as possible, the result is more or less balanced groups in terms of age.
Blind runners
Blind is depending on the post 1 Jungschärler, who is cheered on or actively supported by one or more comrades. The blind's eyes are each blindfolded with a triangular cloth carried by the group.
From the game comes the blindness experience, which can be spiritually transmitted in the devotion.
Post Chief
Every post boss desperately needs to try out his game(s) before the Olympics!
