South
African Cricketers
Prepare for World Cup Campaign
The South African
cricket squad was sent "Round the Bend" in preparation for the
World Cup in England. Coach Bob Woolmer decided to bring the team
together for a break at Felix Unite's "Round the Bend" camp on
the Breede River. The emphasis at the camp was on building spirit and
unity between the players before they left for England, as they had been
apart for a three-week holiday. Getting the players in the right frame
of mind for their upcoming competition included various adventurous
activities, building rafts, going down rivers, and spending time analyzing all the teams they would be up against at the World Cup.
Coke Keeps Coming
Back...Just for the Success of it
Things have been going a lot
better for Peninsula Beverages, the Cape Town bottlers of Coca Cola,
since they embarked on a five-year team building program through Tim
Mogg, a sales consultant with Felix Unite River Adventures. Groups from the company have
made five trips a year to the Breede River camps over the past three
years. "The river program is part of a five-year expansion process
in which Peninsula Beverages aims to achieve double-digit growth, and
they are already seeing the results," said Tim.
Team building exercises are
varied but structured, and stimulate discussion about issues and
problems in the work environment. "We work with large groups of 45
people at a time and over the years have done things like building rafts
to get a single can of Coke across the river, canoeing, rafting,
abseiling, zip-wire sliding, 4x4 driving and playing paintball
games," said Tim.
Peninsula Beverages human resources manager
Corrie Julius said he continued to use Felix Unite River Adventures
Breede River camps at Round the Bend and Up the Creek
because of the quality of service and the competitive package offered. "The big difference is
that we are given the exclusive use of the camp—a service we are
unable to get anywhere else," he said.
