The UK Corporate Games is an annual multi-sports festival taking place to promote health and wellbeing in the workplace and to engage with employees to get them fit for business! The Games is the ultimate mix of sport, business and tourism - bringing businesses of all sizes together for a weekend of competition, congratulations and celebration. The UK Corporate Games usually plays host to 24 sports each year across the weekend, ranging from solo sports like golf or table tennis to teambuilding sports such as 11-a-side football or dragon boat racing. The Games is open equally to any gender, age or ability with the youngest athlete taking part in Games history being only 8 years old and the oldest being 88 years young! Along with all of the sporting activities, the Games is also infamous for its Great Games Party's, Parades and celebrations that take place across the weekend each summer. The celebrations are a core part of the event as it gives participants the chance to represent their business with pride with their respected colours, flags and banners. The UK Corporate Games has a great history spanning over two decades, making it a staple event on the calendar of so many nationally and internationally recognised businesses that we all know and love.
