V. General Mechanics

1. The participants shall be divided into nine teams, with four to five members per

teams.

2. Each team shall undergo a series of sports activities related to Newton's Laws of

Motion. There shall be ten stations comprising the entire event, with nine different

challenges to complete for every team.

3. Aside from the physical challenges to complete, a "brain buster" question related

to the scientific concepts presented shall be introduced before the Olympics

proper. In order to find the answer to this certain question, they must unscramble

the first letters of their answers from each of the stations (to be discussed

further). To keep track of their answers, a worksheet shall be provided.

4. Each of the stations shall feature a simple riddle at the end of the activity. They

must take note of their answers to these riddles because the first letters of these

riddles will be unscrambled to find the answer to the brain buster question.

5. Each team shall be given five minutes to complete every station. The breakdown

is as follows: one minute for the orientation and explanation of physics concepts,

three minutes for the activity proper, and one minute for the riddle.

6. After five minutes in a particular station, all teams shall rotate and move on to the

next part of their challenge.

7. Teams that will be able to answer the "brain buster" question accurately shall be

given additional incentives which are additional 100 points.

8. Each station shall follow a point system structured around rubrics/criteria

depending on the nature of the activity. Points may be gained in every station by

accomplishing each activity successfully.

9. The station leaders shall have with them a scoresheet to monitor the

performance of every group.

10. Once all stations have been completed by all teams, the number of points per

group shall be tallied by the station leaders in order to determine the winners.

11. Special awards shall be given to the following participants (to be judged by the

leaders per station):

- The Avengers (Overall Champion)

- Professor X (Brain Buster Champion)

- Superman (Best Male Athlete)

- Wonder Woman (Best Female Athlete)

- Guardians of the Galaxy (Models of Sportsmanship)
