The experience

Energy, roles and teamwork through racing across a marked court in a team challenge

This is a fun and highly competitive team activity, where participants will be divided into multiple teams standing parallel to each other on a 100-foot long court.

As the level of complexity increases, the fun turns into serious game that requires real concentration. what starts out as a simple linear sequential activity soon becomes a powerful learning experience about shared leadership and task management.

What the team can practise

Agree the objective

Before racing across a marked court in a team challenge, make sure the team understands what counts as progress in each round.

Divide useful roles

Give everyone a clear way to contribute rather than leaving the same people to act each time.

Communicate quickly

Use concise updates when the task or result changes and the group needs to choose again.

Include the whole group

Notice who has not yet taken part and create an opening for their contribution.

Adjust between rounds

Use a short reset to keep what worked, change what did not and begin the next attempt together.

Keep competition constructive

Celebrate effort, good decisions and encouragement as well as the final score.

Beyond the activity

What teams can take from the Coolamandu session

As teams work through racing across a marked court in a team challenge, short rounds or changing tasks reveal how people set priorities, share roles and respond when the result is uncertain. The format gives the facilitator specific moments to recognize, not just a score to celebrate.

Bring the debrief back to work by discussing how teams include different voices, reset after a setback and keep competition focused on learning and participation.
