The Vice Chancellor, Professor Rama Thirunamachandran said:<\/strong> \u2018I welcome the \u2018Vice Chancellor\u2019s Challenge\u2019 as an excellent initiative and one clearly linked to the University\u2019s promotion of its Well-Being strategy. \u00a0Where operationally feasible I encourage managers to release staff to participate. \u00a0Good luck to all the teams competing for the prizes.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
To help level the playing field, we\u2019ve selected a range of quirky activities for the event including Ultimate Frisbee, Pickleball, Rounders, Sitting Volleyball and an Old School Sports Day. We have now added Archery Tag to the list too \u2013 a fun combination of dodgeball and archery played with foam tipped \u2018arrows\u2019!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Entries for the event will close at 4pm on Monday 12th<\/sup> June<\/strong>, so whether it\u2019s as a team building activity for your department, a reason to get active or an opportunity to get competitive and socialise with other departments, there is still time for you to enter a team.<\/p>\n
