Olympic Icebreaker: Famous Olympic Athletes

Description
This icebreaker is appropriate during the Olympics or for special sports events.

Preparation
On small slips of paper write down the names of numerous athletes. (Best if they are the more prominent athletes from the Olympics or the more famous athletes from a variety of sports.)

What to do

1. Tape the names of Olympic athletes to the back of students as they arrive.
2. The task of the students is to discover which Olympic athlete's name is pinned on their backs by asking only "yes" or "no" questions.
3. This continues until everyone arrives and has learned the name of the famous Olympic athlete on his/her back.
4. Then go around the group and ask each youth their name, favorite Olympic sport, and other information you might like to know.
