March Madness is upon us, and we will be getting together as 3-person teams to co-mingle with our colleagues and have some competitive fun!
This year, we will still have the stations (details below), but will be a little different as we will be doing bracket style. You and your team will be competing against another team and go through all stations, whichever team has the most points at the end of that round will move to the next round. The stations will get progressively harder as the you get deeper into the competition.
Stations
Trivia– you will be asked questions and have multiple choice answers to choose from regarding college basketball. As you get deeper into the competition, the questions will get progressively harder each round.
“Who am I?”– you will be given photos of famous basketball players, and have to guess who they are. As you get deeper into the competition, the basketball photos of players will get harder to remember who they might be.
Shoot out– You will shoot a basketball in the hoop. As you get deeper into the competition, you will have to shoot further away from the basket to make it more difficult.
***NEW Referee calls– there will be someone acting out referee calls, and you will have to guess what the calls are. As you get deeper into the competition, the calls will get progressively harder to guess.
You will receive all details and point systems on the day of the competition.
There will be a “concession stand” as well, and chairs for you to watch your colleagues if you are finished early. In order to get concession snacks, we will need donations of canned goods, i.e. chips=2 canned goods, Gatorade=1 canned good, etc.
When: Friday, March 29th from 12:00PM – 2:00PM
Where: All of the 9th floor
Why: What a better time to celebrate March Madness with your colleagues and friends. Even if you are not a basketball fan, come and take a breather from the work load and learn something new about someone you may not know! Engage, have fun, and enjoy each other!
How: To sign up your team of 3 (must include males and females), please contact Dena Jackson djackson@nationallife.com with your team members and team name by Friday, March 22nd. Brackets will be completed and posted on Wednesday, March 27th.
