As part of the Digital Marketing and Pr in Sport module I was assigned to a group with the aim to come up with an idea for “good news” as the theme of an event for Time to Talk Day. Members of my group included me Zach,Owen,Tobias,Rhianna and a couple of the first year boys.
After being put into our breakout groups we came up with the idea to do a sports themed quiz which would include groups of sports teams that wanted to take part and make it into a competition. We would also have well known people in the industry send us videos of them reading out questions about themselves as pre-recordings for part of some of the rounds in the quiz.
We later all assigned each other roles we thought we would each thrive tho most in. Zach’s role was to jointly host the quiz alongside Rhianna whilst also editing the quiz since he was the most skilled on that front. Tobias and Owens roles were to make some of the questions and themes whilst also contacting sports athletes and well known people in the industry to take part in the quiz with pre recorded videos of themselves for Zach to edit in. The first years also made a few of the questions whist I made the Starter packs.
My contribution being the starter packs meant that I was responsible for one of the four rounds in the quiz my round being four pictures that are associated or in relation to a famous sports person and the participants would have to guess who that person was for a point.
Teamwork wise I thought our communication as a whole was very good in the snapchat group chat we made and everyone carried out the roles they were assigned with no problems. However as of my individual contribution I feel I could have done more despite only being set one task by asking in the group chat for extra things to do perhaps. I feel I definitely sat back and took the backseat whilst people like Zach carried us through a little. Luckily this didn’t seem to have much of an effect at all on our end result as the quiz I feel was a huge success.
Next time perhaps I could improve by taking more of a demanding role in the group and being more active as a whole with communication and the work I produce for the team however all in all I believe this quiz was a great success and is something each member of the group can be proud of for their contributions.
