Monthly Challenge

IT’S CHRISTMAS TIME!

Get ready for a month packed full of festive fun, creativity and Christmas cheer! Here’s the December challenges below:

Anchors: Create the most colourful and artistic Christmas tree drawing they can! Let’s see their festive flair shine bright!

Juniors: Rock their funkiest Christmas jumper! (Embracing Christmas Jumper Day which is 11th December!) This is something that can be created on the night or worn in advance; completely up to you.

Company: Elf Day – 3rd December! Suit up in their best elf costume (BB badge must be visible!) — the more creative, the better (some may decide to make their own on a night, some may use ones already owned)!

Seniors: It’s time for Christmas dinner! Let them show us their most epic feast! We want to see who can fit the most Brussels sprouts or pigs in blankets on one plate! (Do you trust them cooking on a night? They can take this externally)

Let’s finish the year with plenty of laughter, sparkle, and festive spirit!

February’s challenge is inspired by a range of exciting events taking place in the month — Valentine’s Day, the Six Nations Rugby, the Winter Olympics, and, of course, the all-important National Hedgehog Day on 2 February!

Each section has its own creative challenge, designed to encourage imagination, effort, and fun:

Anchors

Create the best hedgehog you can! This can be drawn, built, or crafted using any materials you have in the cupboard. Whether it’s pencil and paper, cardboard, tissue or something more imaginative, this challenge is all about creativity and using your imagination.

Junior Section

The Rugby Six Nations kicks off on 5 February and features seven logos — one for each nation and the main tournament logo. Choose one or more logos and draw, design, or create them in your own style. You don’t need to complete them all — pick your favourites and show us your best work. Again, you can do this in any method you choose.

Company Section

The Winter Olympics take place in Milano Cortina, Italy. Your challenge is to draw, design, make, create, or even act out a sport that features in the Games. How you present this is entirely up to you — the more creative, the better!

Senior Section

Valentine’s Day is a celebration of love — and that doesn’t have to be just romantic love! This can be for a partner, family member, guardian, or if completely stuck… even a leader!

Your challenge is to create flowers — this could be through drawing, crafting, origami, or any other creative approach you choose.

We can’t wait to see the imagination, effort, and creativity you bring to the month’s challenges. Good luck, and enjoy!

As we approach the New Year, many people set resolutions—often focusing on improving a skill or boosting their fitness. For our January Challenge, we’re giving everyone the chance to do exactly that. Participants may choose one of two challenges: a fitness-based challenge or a skill-based challenge. Take your pick and give it your best go!

Challenge Options by Section:

Anchors:

• How many star jumps in 30 seconds

or

• How many skips with a skipping rope in 30 seconds

Juniors:

• How many mountain climbers in 30 seconds

or

• How many hula-hoop rotations in 30 seconds

Company:

• How many sit-ups in 30 seconds

or

• How many football keepy-uppies in 30 seconds

Seniors:

• How many press-ups in 30 seconds

or

• How many balls juggled (not timed — photographic or video proof required)

We’re really looking forward to seeing everyone get involved and giving the challenge a go. Good luck, and enjoy!

The challenge for October is about going “bonkers for Conkers”! 

Anchors- Most amount of Conkers you can get. 

Juniors- most Conker circles you can create inside each other.  (See picture)

Company- Conker Pyramid, tallest Conker pyramid you can create. (This is straight height so a measuring one)

Seniors- Best BB Logo made using conkers (meaning the anchor, letters, rope and cross, no need to try for the text, unless you want to of course) 

So the September monthly challenge has landed! 

All you need across the four sections are;

All sections- Jenga pieces (any size will do!)

For Anchors and Juniors, it is a case of building the highest tower of jenga blocks you can! Take a picture of your tower, count how many high they stand and how tall- send it over! Make sure to get in your tallest tower! 

Company- you have to play a game of Jenga (3 piece layers), and see what the highest standing tower you have is before it topples, take pictures or record a video as you go! This is counting how many stories your jenga tower goes to, so keep a note and see how you do! 

Seniors- now, your challenge is to build a jenga bridge, with as much of a gap between the two standing pieces as possible. Who can get the furthest distance covered and photographed?
