Sport is always a big draw, but a
corporate polo experience is something
diff erent and ticks all the boxes on
participation, team building, incentivising
and entertaining. What is more, no
riding experience is necessary to play
a chukka and ride a polo pony, giving
the delegates an opportunity to mingle
in a setting that is more engaging than
competitive. The fun is in the learning.
“This is a fantastic option for clients
looking for an invigorating activity after
an intense meeting,” states Lupori. “This
experience is enjoyable whatever the
profi le of the team.” CWT has staged
successful polo days at Ascot Park, just
45 minutes from central London, with
Europe’s largest all-weather polo arena.
Golf is a massively popular sport and
creates a similar buzz in a group but
CWT Meetings & Events suggests
indoor simulators in two stylish London
venues, Smithfi eld and Soho. Groups
of over 150 can book Urban Golf’s two
venues on an exclusive basis and make
good use of the 19th hole!
“It’s guaranteed to generate some
constructive competitiveness while
the structure of the venue encourages
networking,” advises Lupori.
In a similar vein, boutique bowling is
taking off , and clients using All Star Lanes
benefi t from a self-contained bowling
alley, private entrance, cocktail bar and
the fi nest diner cuisine for a memorable
team building experience. The private
bowling rooms have an exclusive feel
and are ideal for product launches and
team building, helping to raise team spirit.
Choosing the right venue is crucial
and taking an unconventional path is
guaranteed to impress your guests and
leave them on a high, making the event
unforgettable.
