27 Sea Team BuildingAmazing Race: City Challenge in Durban
Durban's favourite round-robin relay — teams race between checkpoints across the city for a live scoreboard finish.
Teams of roughly six compete round-robin style across a series of checkpoints — one of our most booked formats for team building in Durban, scored on a simple win, draw or loss system.
Teams of roughly six people compete against each other round-robin style, working through a series of checkpoints. In Durban, we regularly route this around the beachfront promenade, the Golden Mile and the CBD, giving out-of-town delegates a proper tour of the city while they compete.
Every round runs to a tight rhythm — twenty minutes of activity, ten minutes to regroup — with results tallied after every leg so standings are never a mystery. It scales beautifully, from a single Durban office block to a full company-wide conference spanning multiple precincts.
