Outdoor archery and clay pigeon shooting event with b-ceed.
OUR FIRST-HAND ACCOUNT
The Wild West included – from bow and arrow to rifle.
As a new employee at b-ceed: events! I was able quite soon to accompany my first corporate event featuring archery
and clay pigeon shooting, organised by and with b-ceed. As part of an incentive event for a large mobile network operator, our task was to support our client with the organisation and ensure everything ran smoothly on site. Who didn’t dream as a little child of mastering the art of archery
like Winnetou or Old Shatterhand? Of course, you can’t live out such dreams in your day-to-day working life. That day, supervisors, colleagues and employees experienced an exciting team competition at first hand. Precision and skill met ambition and motivation – the extraordinary team events featuring archery and clay pigeon shooting were a perfect fit for this event.
Keep your eye on every target while enjoying archery
We arrived at the venue in the early afternoon, in good time to set up the archery and clay pigeon shooting stations. In glorious sunshine, our partners set up the activities with care and expertise. It wasn’t long before curious participants darted ahead of their colleagues towards the targets and guns, hoping to gain a small advantage. But once the teams had been assigned, it quickly became clear that success in archery depended on a thorough introduction to the activity and a good dose of team spirit. The handling of bow and arrow called for the utmost concentration, and clay pigeons weren’t hit with uncoordinated shots either, but with considered moves and skill. I quickly noticed the growing delight at each success, and every so often colleagues even embraced triumphantly and proudly.
It’s hard to shoot on an empty stomach
Food and drink keep body and soul together. The same was true at this team event
. The client was treated to delicious food between the activities. At b-ceed: events!, no wish goes unmet. From pineapple to onion tart, we’re happy to cater to the group’s tastes. We also often fire up the barbecue on site and prepare a delicious spread. That afternoon, filled rolls, cake and pretzels were served – a little something to eat before the big event. As one or two people heartily bit into their rolls, some participants were already showing me their fantastic team results. I was especially proud when someone said to me: “This is great fun, you’ve organised it brilliantly!”
Coordination is everything in clay pigeon shooting
Keeping around 120 colleagues in check is no easy task. So I grew into the challenge of delivering this exciting team event as the day went on. Following the carefully planned schedule played a major role. If one or two participants lost their way, we at b-ceed: event! kept our cool. We place particular importance on ensuring the event runs stress-free and that the client can enjoy it without a hitch. I was able to see first-hand what sets us apart as a full-service event agency:
the individual delivery of a complete peace-of-mind package.
My experience of the archery team event
Of course, I was very nervous before accompanying my first project at the archery team event
. But I was just as excited about the day. Direct contact with the client, contributing to a successful corporate event, having an immediate impact on the success of the team-building event – I enjoyed all of it immensely. What I found particularly lovely was being able to look out at so many smiling faces. Away from the stresses of everyday working life, the awards ceremony, with its team scores, was sure to leave a lasting impression on the employees. Archery and clay pigeon shooting – truly brilliant ideas!
