A couple of years ago John Fox and I ran the 5 Challenge Adventure Team Event.
The Challenge comprised physical and mental tasks in a team-building environment where everyone had to do their bit. 17 teams of 5 people took part and had a great time. Each of the challenges had to be complete in a time limit, with points awarded for levels of success. The teams then navigated their way to the next task by bike.
We raise about £2000 for Jersey Hospice.
I am keen to do something similar again, perhaps linking with Run Jersey (the run trial and geo-caching people) and use John's excellent Activity Centre at St Martin. This is an excellent location, with fields, hills, and close proximity to the beach.

1. Helping Promote Sport better in the channel islands

2. Jersey Triathlon Training Camp

3. Tabatta Classes

4. Sports Travel
• Linking up with travel agents to help local athletes get off the island and progress with sports against different opposition.
5. Turbo Classes
• Hiring a sports hall for the winter months and let people bring there bikes and turbo trainers during the dull winter months
6. New Races Running/Cycling
• Top Idea: We could travel the island searching for new routes n race ideas and setup our own races. Give Jersey athletes a shock to a new course and challenge.
