YMCA of Greater Boston presents the YGB Games, an annual corporate team-building initiative designed to support a corporate ethos of giving back. Through friendly competition for a great cause, the YGB Games fosters camaraderie among colleagues. Your team will face off against competitors in games like dodgeball, basketball, etc. As a bonus, when you & your colleagues decide to register, you also will be significantly improving the lives of youth and families in the Greater Boston community.
