Playing Sport, Job Titles Don't Matter

Most employers recognise the potential of sport to help build teams and give people confidence. But for many of their employees, participation in sport ended when they left education.

So, how do you create a sport related employee event that delivers benefits for both the employer and their employees. Especially for people who haven’t participated in sport for many years.

In 2016 John McClarey founded Business Fives.

In this episode of Fit For My Age he explains to Michael Millward of Abeceder how Business Fives creates inclusive business sports competitions.

John describes how the inclusive nature of Business Fives events creates a unique proposition that not only adds value to clients and their teams, they also support corporate social responsibility activities.

Business Fives offers competitions across soccer, rugby, golf, and e-sports.
