TeleSky Team Building Day 1
TeleSky’s staff team building began with what could only be described as a cocktail of laughter, bruised knees, competitive spirits, and surprising brilliance. Under the vibrant theme “Wish & Wow”, Day 1 proved that teamwork isn’t just discussed in PowerPoints — it’s sweated out on grass fields, under the sun, with pride on the line.
What started as a simple warm-up turned into a spectacular display of teamwork and human tunnels, where grown adults rediscovered the agility (and knee strength) they last used in primary school. By mid-morning, the field looked like a scene from a corporate Olympics — agents, supervisors, and managers crawling, cheering, failing, rising, and winning — all in one breath.
And yes — some left with grass scrapes like trophies of war.
“I haven’t touched the ground like that since the 90s!” laughed Lucy, proudly flashing a fresh grass burn on her knee like a badge of honour.
The Human Tunnel Game: Where Pride Met Gravity
No article on Day 1 would be complete without the highlight — the Human Tunnel Race, a physically comedic masterpiece in which teams had to form a tunnel by standing with legs apart while one member crawled through.
Rules were simple: fastest team wins.
Outcome was chaotic: gravity won too.
Jude slid through the tunnel like a Commando in a mission movie, popping out the other end with a triumphant fist pump, while Diana got stuck mid-way because someone tightened the formation too early, prompting screams of “Reverse! Reverse!” across the field.
By the last race, even managers couldn’t resist joining — proving that seniority has no meaning when grass and glory are involved.
Tensions, Tactics & ‘Political’ Debates
Competition brings out the strategist in everyone — and sometimes the politician too.
Team Red insisted Team Purple miscounted their tunnel rotations
Team Red swore they won “spirit points” if not actual points
At one point, the conversation sounded like a live parliamentary debate:
“Point of order! Their tunnel collapsed and they still want the win?” shouted Peter from Reports, half-serious, half-joking.
“We demand a recount!” replied the QA Squad, calculators metaphorically drawn.
In the end, laughter — not votes — carried the day, as judges diplomatically settled disputes using the ancient corporate method: rock-paper-scissors.
Lessons Forged in Sweat & Grass
Despite the comedy, the purpose of the day shone brightly.
Staff reflected on:
- Teamwork: No tunnel stands without unity — lessons rang louder than whistles.
- Team Spirit: When one fell, ten hands pulled them up. Literally.
- Competition: We fought hard, but we laughed harder.
- Innovation: Creative strategies emerged — from knee sliding to tactical spacing.
- Quality Execution: We learnt that fast isn’t always smart — technique beats speed.
“Sometimes you wow the world not by strength, but by strategy,” remarked Paul, Team Captain, after reorganising his line to reduce tunnel collapse.
The Wish & Wow Spark Ignited
As the sun set, shoes muddy and knees decorated with scrapes of honour, TeleSky went home more bonded than it arrived.
The wish of the day was simple — to connect.
The wow was profound — we connected deeper than expected.
Day 1 ended with cheers, poses for sunset photos, and one unofficial slogan of the event:
“If you didn’t get a grass scrape, were you even there?”
Tomorrow Awaits — Day 2 Promises Bigger Wows
With creativity awakened, voices hoarse from cheering, and a little friendly rivalry brewing, Day 2 promises even more excitement, innovation sessions, and unforgettable memories.
Wish today. Wow tomorrow. TeleSky is just warming up.
