Football Field Challenge transforms large-scale training into an active, team-based competition.
Teams work through custom learning assignments, receive expert feedback, and earn opportunities to climb a giant football league table. Designed to be fully customised around your learning objectives, the format combines realistic workplace scenarios with friendly competition to create a scalable, memorable learning experience that keeps every participant engaged from kick-off to the final whistle.
Why It Works
Large-scale training works best when every team is active, every task has purpose, and progress is easy to see.
Football Field Challenge turns custom learning assignments into a competitive team game built around visible momentum.
Makes progress visible: Teams physically move up a giant football league table, so learning momentum becomes clear, competitive, and energising.
Keeps every team active: Teams work through assignments at their own pace, avoiding downtime and keeping large groups engaged throughout.
Connects play to learning: Progress on the pitch is earned through meaningful assignments, expert feedback, and applied workplace scenarios.
Adapts to any topic: The game format can be built around leadership, coaching, onboarding, values, change, or any other learning objective.
Scales without losing depth: The format works for large cohorts while still giving teams space to discuss, practise, and receive feedback.
How It Works
Kick off the season: Teams become the coaching staff of their own football club, taking responsibility for helping their players perform at their best throughout the season.
Tackle real-world challenges: Teams work through custom workplace assignments based on your learning objectives, discussing scenarios, solving problems, and deciding on the best course of action together.
Receive expert feedback: Facilitators review each team's approach, provide coaching, and award scoring opportunities based on the quality of their decisions.
Climb the league table: Teams earn points through a series of football-themed scoring activities, moving up on a giant league-table carpet as they progress through the season.
Celebrate the champions: As the season unfolds, teams compete for the top of the table while building practical skills they can immediately apply back in the workplace.
