- A long bench or line of chairs per team to sit rowing-style

HOW TO PLAY
1
Seat each team in a single-file line, sitting as if aboard a narrow boat.
2
Teams mime a rowing motion together in unison, following a caller who sets the pace.
3
The caller chants a rhythmic phrase that the whole team echoes back between rowing strokes.
4
Speed up the rowing motion and chant gradually to build energy toward a big finishing shout.
5
Teams can be judged on how well synchronized their rowing motion and chanting stayed throughout.
