Spy Games

Our team building event held at Spy Games HQ in Milton Keynes on Friday 18 June was a roaring success! At 11.30am, with rain chucking it down outside, 13 of our 17 staff piled into their cars and made their way to the ultimate world of Spies and Secret Agents to take part in spy training, using surveillance gadgets and spy weapons.

Once the competition rules, events and activities had been explained (basically the team that earned the most imitation dollars throughout the day would be crowned winner) we divided into two teams, to become known as 007 and Thundercats.

By 2pm, full of energy and enthusiasm following a scrumptious buffet lunch, we headed off for three hours of ultimate fun thanks to team building games that included axe throwing, mortar attack, code breaking and laser challenge......to name but a few.

With team 007 having collected the most ‘dollars’ throughout the afternoon, at 5pm we were called to a presentation ceremony, where each winning team member received a trophy!

Presentations over and 13 wet and bedraggled yet happy staff members piled back into their vehicles en route for an overnight stay at nearby Horwood House Hotel. Oh and although it seems a lifetime ago now, we had tremendous fun watching England beat Algeria. That was then and enough said.

Such was the success of the day we’re now hoping to arrange a company-wide activity every quarter! Whoever said accountancy firms were boring!
