Spider's Web Team Building Exercise

The aim of the challenge is for the whole team to travel through the web. At the moment, the web is blocking your path to safety. Be careful though, as the web is extremely poisonous and any time a team member touches the web, the challenge will be restarted.

The objective of this challenge is to get the entire team from one side of the web to the other without using the same gap twice and without touching any of the web. The team must pass through the gaps in the web, one at a time. Each gap in the web can only be used once. Once someone has travelled through the hole in the web, it is then closed off for the rest of the activity. Nothing (including clothing) can touch any part of the web, or the structure supporting the web.No other equipment may be used in this activity. The group must complete this activity in a safe manner or the activity will be stopped. If any guidelines are broken, the group will have to restart the challenge.
