Every team in GoChallenge has a Team Captain â the motivator, encourager, and all-around champion who helps their squad stay on track. At GoChallenge, success isnât about individual effort â itâs about getting everyone across the finish line. Thatâs where you come in.
What does a Team Captain do?
â Kick things off strong: Check in early and make sure everyone is set up and connected. If someoneâs stuck, guide them to [email protected].
â Keep the energy high: Your teamâs WhatsApp group is your home base. Drop a daily check-in, hype the wins, and keep motivation flowing.
â Look out for teammates falling behind: Some may struggle with the tech, others with the challenge itself. A quick message of support can make all the difference.
â Encourage small, consistent movement: Steps add up! Remind your team that shorter walks throughout the day are just as effective as long ones.
â Bring people together: Organise a team walk if youâre nearby, or check in virtually to stay connected.
â Lead by example: Stay active, stay positive, and your team will follow.
