Jumping through hoops took on a new meaning for employees of the Dusit Thani Hotel who put aside hard work for a couple of days to enjoy the annual sports days and staff party.
The Oct. 12-13 celebration at the Pattaya resort saw four teams of staffers engage in balloon races, relays, bull-herding and jumping through hula hoops.
General Manager Chatchawan Supachayanont said the activities are held each year to enhanced the staff’s physical and mental health in a relaxed, social environment. It leads to a better work and social environment, he added.

‘’Competing in sports is another way to help the staff utilize their free time and reduce health problems by building a stronger immune system while also relieving stress,” Chatchawan said.
Some of the members of the purple team perform traditional Thai dance.
The relay race can’t continue until the balloon is sat on and popped.
Cheerleaders prepare to lead their teams in cheers.
