Why team mode works

Average scoring keeps non-athletes in the game.

Sum-based teams let one high performer mask silent seats. Vantage Fit ranks teams by the average of member scores, so peer accountability is real.

01

Every seat matters

Inactive members lower the team average. Silent seats stop being free.

02

No superstar carry

Consistent squads beat one hero plus silent peers on average scoring.

03

Balanced team size

Set a max per challenge. Help recommends 4-6 so effort stays visible.

04

Personal + team ranks

Toggle Individual and Team boards in the same challenge.

How teams form

Build squads your way: org chart, spreadsheet, or captains.

Match formation to the program. Pre-assign plants and departments, or let employees rally their own crews.

Admin-created

Pre-assign departments and sites from Manage Challenge → Teams. Add members by name or email.

Bulk upload

Import team name + employee email rows via CSV or Google Sheets. Create and assign in one pass.

Captain invites

Captains name the team, add a slogan, and invite colleagues. Admins still edit, move, or delete.

Company settings: Employee team creation is enabled at the company level (with your account manager if needed). Large programs can use automated team creation coordinated by Vantage Fit.

Pair teams with the right format

Team mode on the programs people stick with.

Teams are a mode on challenge formats, not a separate product. Use the structure that matches your goal.

Format

Custom

Best for multi-activity team seasons

Multi-week themes and task mix with full team configuration. Admin or employee-created squads.

Format

Streak

Best for daily habit + teams

Hit a daily target. Optional team competition on average scores. Strong for 2-4 week consistency drives.

Format

Journey

Best for shared map progress

Visual milestones with optional team mode. Members progress on the map; teams rank by average score.

Honest product note: Pure Race challenges are individual-only. Want steps with teams? Use Streak, Journey, or a Custom challenge with step tasks.

Questions before rollout

Straight answers for team programs.

How is team score calculated?
Team score is the average of members’ individual scores, not the sum. Every member’s contribution counts equally. Inactive members pull the average down.
Who creates teams: HR or employees?
Either. Admins can create teams one-by-one or via CSV/Sheets. If enabled for your company, captains can create teams and invite colleagues. Admins retain edit, move, and delete control either way.
What team size works best?
You set a maximum per challenge. Help guidance is 4-6 members so accountability stays high while the group still feels social. Typical configurable range is roughly 3-10.
Which challenge formats support teams?
Custom, Streak, and Journey support optional team mode. Race is individual-only. For team step competition, choose Streak, Journey, or a Custom challenge with step tasks.
Can we run department or multi-site team challenges?
Yes. Pre-create teams by department or location, or filter the challenge audience by department, city, or country. One program can span time zones with local midnights for start, reset, and end.
