Lol yea a soft drink bottle style one :D 1.25L one
The competition will be to launch an egg and recover it intact.The scoring will be the time the egg is aloft.If the EGG breaks,the score is zero.each team will get two rocket launches using either same rocket for both launches,or a different rocket for each launch.Each flight will be time from moment of launch until touchdown of the payload.The times will be recorded

note:if pieces of the rocket separate during the launch and/or flight the time to touchdown will be recorded when the payload of the rocked lands

The rocket will be powered by compressed air/water

No metal of glass part and wood may be used anywhere in the rocket design

Okay so basically i have to design a rocket...
the key to winning is for the egg to stay in the air the longest and allow the egg to SAFELY arrive on ground or else ZERO!!!

312.5ml(25%)took 4.86 to arrive on the ground
