Mexican Railway
The Mexican Railway is a
superb concept to highlight the key important roles of teamwork,
communication, the bigger picture, and of course fun.
The overall objective if to
transfer 1 or more balls from one side of a dedicated area, to the other, in
a railroad style.
As individual teams, or as
one whole group. They will be
supplied with various jigs and ample supplies of machine rolled paper rods.
On completion groups will need to figure out how to travel the ball.
The Mexican wave... With the
entire group positioned all the way down the railway, with their arms under
the track, they will need to perform a Mexican wave in complete consistence
for the ball to move.
Additional challenges can be
added such as more than one ball, or racing various railways, head to head.
The challenge is designed to
focus on group communication, as the Mexican wave will not be effective
without effective communication. The group will need to plan their strategy,
interact with each other, delegate roles, and complete the challenge against
the clock.
A superb activity which
achieves objectives in a short space of time, also providing a hilarious
activity for ALL group members.
