This paper presents the development of a team game activity for the course of Probability and Statistics that was held in the first day of class of an Engineering program to motivate students. This course is sometimes described as dense and considerably difficult, so students may be somewhat apprehensive. Thus, this activity aimed to break with such predisposition.
