Hello everyone,
We are planning to organize a "Sports Day" in our organization. I thought of dividing the whole bunch of employees into 4 teams/houses. Please suggest some wacky names. Help me out by sharing how you organized it!
With warm regards,

Hi Medha,
How many employees do you have? Are you going to have indoor or outdoor games? If outdoor, then you can hire a good playground and have athletics (50m, 100m, sack race, even 400m) for both men and women, cricket, football for men, and some team games for women such as handball. You can hire the umpires from the ground itself; they will help in administering the games. You can do the following to organize a good Sports Day:
1. Book a good sports ground.
2. Decide on the individual and team events you want to organize.
3. Make teams.
4. Provide different T-shirts or caps for the identification of teams.
5. Select a captain and vice-captain from each team.
6. Have a meeting with all captains and vice-captains and give them the list of events, rules for each event, etc.
7. Take the participants' names for each event, ensuring there is no repeat participant. Most of your employees should participate in at least one event.
8. Announce the schedule of events at least three days in advance and display it on the notice board.
9. Make arrangements for umpires or referees either internally or externally (if the ground provides it, even better). If external, the results will be impartial, and all your employees can take part in the event.
10. Provide good prizes such as medals for individual events and cups for team events. Establish a point system for each event, and the team with the maximum points can get a shield.
11. Keep some light snacks and plenty of water available.
One thing is certain; it takes a lot of commitment and effort from the organizers, but it's worth doing.
I hope this gives you some ideas. If you have any queries, feel free to get back to me.
Cheers,
Harshad

Hi All,
I am writing here to introduce Paintball - a novel team-gaming concept that has over time proven to be a successful enabler for corporate training.
Introduction to Paintball:
Paintball is an extremely popular training module in the United States and has only recently started evoking interest in India. Effectively paintball is a real combat game played in a field where each player has a CO2 powered marker or gun that fires paint-filled gelatine balls called paintballs; the objective is really to do or die! While the field is laden with artifacts, bunkers and other obstacles, the objective for every player is to eliminate the other teams members by simply marking them out and shooting the opponent with a big splotch of paint; the team is victorious only if they are able to capture the opposing team flag without being shot. A battle simulation complete with equipment and uniforms, this sport is a team game.
Corporate Trainings:
In the US, paintball based corporate training sessions are a rage. This is because paintball, in essence, combines elements of strategy, planning, team-work and leadership into one fun-filled game. It has the power to adapt depending on the training needs from an "Eliminator" game (where each participant of every team eliminated other team members) to a "Catch the Flag" (individual sport where each participant's goal is to take possession of the flag). All this, in a battle-like field, makes the event fun, exciting and addictive a perfect getaway from the daily chores.
About us:
Our team spent a couple of weeks in the US learning the ropes of this business from the top fields in California and have recently started "The Paintball Club" in India. We offer multiple gaming formats to our individuals and corporate clients. We believe the sport can be an effective training tool in areas of team-work, leadership, strategy & planning.
Do let me know what you think - Feel free to give me a call on +91-9819938377 or drop me a line anytime.
