Dropping the ball
The challenge was to pass a tennis ball to each member of the team so that the ball touched each person's hand. However this had to be done quickly so we could beat the other team. One constraint we added in which made the challenge much more difficult was that we have to be at arms length from our peers.
At first we tried to simply pass it to each other, but we kept "dropping the ball." To succeed in the most efficient manner, our group decided to roll the ball down each of our hands, allowing gravity to do all the work for us. This proved to be the easiest way to solve the challenge. Unfortunately the other team copied us, even though we executed it better.
It was good that we all communicated during the activity, since knowing what your team mates are doing is necessary. It would have been better if we practiced more so that we could perfect our technique.
