Thorpe Park presents new Rugby World Cup team-building challenge

To coincide with the build-up to the 2015 Rugby World Cup, Thorpe Park Resort has created a new GPS team-building offering called ?Up and Under?.

?Up and Under? uses GPS technology and Samsung tablets to unlock hotspots around the resort to crack rugby-related clues, complete challenges and earn points. The challenge includes fast-track tickets to three top rollercoasters, ensuring that ?team + speed = ultimate high performance?. An event manger ? or referee ? interacts with the teams and scores photo and video submissions in real-time updates to the live scoreboard.

The rugby theming extends to the catering with a special ?Sin Bin? Picnic Box and the challenge ends with a prize ceremony with medals for the winning team.

Jennifer Connery, Head of Corporate Events at Thorpe Park Resort, comments: ?The face of team building is changing and the resort is at the forefront of this change. We are continually looking at new ways to involve businesses in teambuilding experiences. The Rugby World Cup provides the ideal topical backdrop to those looking for a teambuilding activity that enables colleagues to stretch themselves, bond with colleagues, use their creativity, be motivated to think outside their normal way of thinking or operating, compete as part as a team, be inspired and gain a sense of achievement and, essentially, have fun at a resort that has some of the most exciting and exhilarating roller coaster rides in Europe. And all under the umbrella of ?Business for the Thrill of It?.?

The full day ?Up and Under? package is available at ?75 per person + VAT. For more information, visit thorpepark.com/music-and-events/corporate-events/overview.
