Team-building activities are a great way to break up the monotony of the workday experience. Unique team-building exercises enhance communication among team members, build camaraderie among colleagues, and are a great way to blow off steam! One of the best things to do for a team-building exercise is mini golf because it’s fun for all ages! Let’s take a look at some of the other benefits mini golf has for a team-building activity.
It's Fun For Everyone
Mini golf is active, allows teammates to engage with one another in a new way, and all ages can easily play mini golf! One of the benefits of playing mini golf is that it allows players to interact in a fun and exciting environment. Courses like the one at Smugglers Cove feature caves, waterfalls, and even a pirate ship set in a lush, tropical landscape. Not only that, but you'll have the opportunity to feed the 20-30 American Alligators that live at Smugglers Cove.
Enhance Communication
Mini golf encourages team members to work together to problem solve and find a way through the challenging course. Break up into teams to make this experience even more engaging. Enhancing communication among team members in a fun environment allows them to build trust and confidence in one another, and those skills will be useful when back in the workplace. When trust has been built in a low-pressure situation, teammates are likely to remember how effectively they worked together and rely on those same teammates when workplace conflicts arise. Mini golf as a team-building activity will improve the overall morale of the group and create shared memories that teammates will look back on fondly for years to come.
Learn About Each Other
There's nothing like a friendly competition to highlight new skills that team members may possess. Breaking out of the office for a fun team-building experience allows teammates to see a whole new side of each other. A fun atmosphere like Smugglers Cove also encourages people to let loose and have some fun. People are more likely to share insights into their personal lives in a comfortable environment. They're more likely to laugh, relax and let their unique personalities shine through with a fun game of mini golf.
Increase Creativity
Going into the office day after day can be a drag, and often it's creativity that suffers. Unique team-building experiences like a game of mini golf will encourage teammates to think outside of the box to complete each challenging hole. That creative thinking can make its way back into the workplace for a refreshed mindset on everyday tasks.
Mini golf is a wonderful way to improve the overall morale of a team and build new strengths in a fun and exciting way.
