At school, I wasn’t on the most successful basketball team—defeats seemed to pile up one after another. But it didn’t matter. What mattered was that we stuck together, always playing as one. And we had fun.

We explore the shared goals and effort, the dynamics that make great teams thrive, and the science behind the power of teamwork. We also invite you to join the best running clubs, plus, we take a look at some of the greatest teams ever featured on the silver screen.
