What Team Building Skills can I gain from Old School Sports Day?
Communication
In Old School Sports Day, teams will need to communicate with each other in order to win. With the addition of fun, teams are much more likely to communicate effectively with each other to reach their shared goal of becoming the Old School Sports Day champions! Communication issues account for 86% of failures in the workplace. Therefore, this activity is designed to help your team to better communicate with each other to boost efficiency and improve workflow!
Collaboration
The most vital part of teamwork is collaboration. This event has teams working together to improve their skills in this area! In games such as Giant Inflatable Sausage Race, your colleagues must collaborate with each other to move the fastest and win the game! By making a fun activity out of collaboration, this can help teams to adopt these skills without any added pressure and take these skills back to the office with them!
Efficiency
In Old School Sports Day, efficiency is key. You’ll need to complete the races as quickly and effectively as possible in order to win the event. This subtly introduces the idea of efficiency into the games, by giving your team a shared goal that they must work together to achieve. This soft skill is easily transferrable to the office! Once they’ve discovered the best way to work together to produce results out of the office, it’ll be a breeze when they’re back in!
Who is Old School Sports Day best suited to?
Old School Sports Day is available to groups of all sizes. However, as groups are split into smaller teams, it is best suited to larger groups of 25+ people.
Do I need to bring anything?
Although the equipment is all provided for you, there are some things we suggest you bring! Comfy shoes are a must, as you’ll be on your feet and active for a large portion of the event! We also suggest that you wear comfy clothes that you can move around in (that means no jeans!) and dress appropriately for the weather.
Can we pick our own teams?
This is really down to you! If you want to pick your own teams beforehand, that’s no problem! However, if you want to mix it up a bit, the host can split the group into teams for you – this may help you gain the most you can from the Team Building Skills!
