This time, Drivers together with their companions, were invited to the Mistral Sport Hotel in Gniewino – an official accommodation and training centre for the Spanish national team during the EURO 2012.
Training topics were practical and useful: working time rules for drivers, the latest changes in transport regulations, operation of vehicles, on-board computer service, rules of the arrangement and cargo protection, procedures for dealing with emergency situations. At the end – presentation of company plans and intentions for the new year as well as- fierce as usual – discussion panel.
Exercises and scenes involving drivers aroused huge interest among participants. Nothing does not help to assimilate knowledge as the opportunity of individual exercises related to a particular situation. The whole training ended with distribution of a new , more practical and interesting version of driver’s manual.

After the training, as befits an accommodation centre for Euro 2012, Scandinavian Express Cup Football Tournament took place. 4 teams competed – “Scandalously Original Drivers” (Drivers), “Tigers of the North” (Transport Subcontractors), “SEX Sport Club ” (The office) and ” Gniewino Team” – the host of the competition. After a fierce battle, fueled by Ladies in the role of cheerleaders, Gniewino Team, ahead of Tigers of the North and Scandalously Original Drivers, won the Cup. SEX Sports Club in spite of sacrificial game took the last position. Judging by the name, the team most likely specializes in a different discipline 🙂
