Competitors also got a chance to get together with their teams at the Games’ Welcome Festival for the tennis ball hit out sponsored by Galvin Green and Charity raffle sponsored by Odendaal Diamonds in support of the Youth Sport Trust. Then at the subsequent 90’s themed Great Games Party at Warwick Students Union.
Doug White, Games Director, said:
It was an amazing weekend of sporting competition, and despite the weather everyone embraced the spirit of the Games and gave it their all.

“The uniqueness of the UK Corporate Games is that all sorts of businesses, from multinational corporations right through to local SMEs all compete together… And this was definitely seen in this year’s Games.
While Barclays topped the medal table, smaller firms like Coventry-based sport and culture organisation CV Life, Coventry-based PR agency PLMR Advent picked up medals, and local accountancy firm Armstrongs won the Men’s Soccer 5’s event, which are all fantastic achievements.
“It was also inspiring to see everyone enjoying the Welcome Festival and the Great Games Party outside of their events – the Games is not just about competition, it’s about bringing teams together to network and have fun.
“We have to thank the University of Warwick for being such superb hosts, and of course all the competitors who made this year’s Games so special. It was a wonderful way to mark our 30th anniversary.”
An announcement for the UK Corporate Games 2024 will be made shortly. For more information on how to get your organisation involved, email [email protected] or sign up to the Games newsletter for all the latest announcements here.
