After they are done, they have to call out their birthdays to prove to you that they are standing in chronological order. If they are standing in the right chronological order, the training game is successful. If not ask the participants of this training game to rearrange themselves before declaring the training game to be complete.

This training game can also be used as an icebreaker. Of course, in that case you might have to tell them to give their names as well when at the end they speak out their dates of birth.
