Sports Party

Sports Day 2006 was a party based on sports in Club Penguin, that took place during the summer of 2006. Despite not having any music or other elements that modern parties would have, it was very popular thanks to the refurbishment of the Ice Rink.

Items
Both the Red Face Paint and the Blue Face Paint were available to be found around the island. It also led to a boost of purchases in the Sports Shop. In the Snow Forts you could pick up the Sports Party Ice Skates, which are now a very rare item some old penguins own.

Ice Rink
The Ice Rink was the centre of attention as it served a tri purpose. Those who bought the face paint cheered on in the stands. Meanwhile, many member penguins bought sport items to play in the Ice Rink. Most notably, scoreboards were added onto both sides of the pitch, coloured for each team. Often, the room became full and many penguins battled out for the puck. Makeshift matches took place, and each time the puck enter the net, the score was added onto the scoreboards. Usually, the team with the highest score won. The blue and red teams distinguished themselves from each other using the face paint or corresponding coloured clothing.

Bugs
The Ice Rink was also home to many bugs, especially the malfunctioning scoreboards. Even after tons of goals, the scoreboards never added on an extra number or even displayed an incorrect answer. The puck was also found outside of the playing field, and therefore out of reach of the penguins. This fueled many protests to fix it, as Ice Hockey was unplayable for long amounts of times. The scoreboards were eventually removed, and were promised to return after the issues were fixed. None returned however, despite the introduction of the Soccer Pitch as well.

Penguin Games

A similar event took place in the summer of 2008, although the main emphasis was to complete challenges scattered across Club Penguin Island. The interactive Ice Rink didn't make an appearance. The red and blue face paints, however returned.

Trivia

 * There were hideouts for the red team and the blue team in this party. The red team's hideout was the Coffee Shop and the blue team's hideout was the Pizza Parlor. It was in these rooms where you could pick up the face paints.
