šŸ’¬ Communications Toolkit: Leaderboard Challenge

Introduction

The Leaderboard Challenge allows employees to join forces for a friendly competition while developing healthy movement habits to feel their best.

Participants complete individual Daily 5 sessions to earn points for their team, climbing the leaderboard for a chance to win a shared prize. 4 V-minders = 1 Daily 5. V-minders can be completed and tracked toward challenge participation as long as users are on the latest version of V-minder.

Below you’ll find communication templates that you can tailor to the specifics of your organization’s Leaderboard Challenge to promote participation among those eligible for the challenge.

Note: The enrollment period should ideally begin two weeks before the challenge start date. The challenge itself will last for a duration of 21 days.

As we gear up for the upcoming {Challenge Name} Leaderboard Challenge, we want to make sure every team is ready to compete and make the most of this experience. Please review the following important details:

Team Size Requirement:
Each team must have a minimum of {Team Number} participants to be eligible for full credit on daily points. Teams with fewer than {Team Number} members can still participate, but will not receive full daily point credit.

Recruitment Opportunity:
If your team currently has fewer than {Team Number} members, you are encouraged to recruit additional teammates. You may invite coworkers who have not yet joined the challenge to register and join your team during the first week of the challenge.

Team Changes:
Once the challenge begins, anyone who has already joined a team will remain on that team for the duration of the challenge. Team rosters are locked once the challenge starts.

If you haven’t joined a team yet, you can still do so during the first week of the challenge. New participants can register and select a team anytime within that first week to join the challenge.

Ā 

Now is the perfect time to make sure you’re on the team you want to represent and to help your teammates build a full roster before kickoff! This challenge is a great opportunity to connect with colleagues, stay active and bring a little friendly competition to the workplace.

Let’s make this a strong start and an engaging challenge for everyone!
