The Chapter
The Monarch Games II threw out individual scoring for a straight team war: the top two finishers from 2015 captained a schoolyard draft, splitting the Lions into Red and White.
Soccer, dodgeball, volleyball and basketball across a December weekend - settled, if it came to it, by a single basketball game to eleven.
The weekend closed at a retreat with the Mastermind debrief: suits on, a four-course table, and the ceremonial burning of the year's goals and fears.
“2 Teams. 12 Men. 1 Family.”
