The Top Team Challenge is an activity for members of Company and Seniors. It is based on a multi-task concept where a large number of Companies across the country take part in the same tasks, albeit in their own meeting space.

It covers a wide range of tasks so that all Companies have a fair chance of doing well. A sample of activities included are: 

  • Physical 
  • General knowledge 
  • Logic/Puzzle 

The Challenge is an ideal way of taking part in a national competition without needing to travel or incur any expenses.

Principles of the Challenge

  • The Challenge is open to Companies that are members of The Boys’ Brigade UK & RoI or The Northern Ireland Boys’ Brigade.
  • A Company only needs to have four young people in order to enter a team.
  • Joint Company entries can be accepted where Companies have a small number in their Company and/or Seniors age groups.
  • Every Company that enters the Challenge will receive a certificate showing its position in the results table.
  • The Challenge should be judged by a leader, with the expectation this is done fairly and honestly. You could bring in a leader from another Company to help you achieve this.
