Motivational device for team competitions

摘要

Apparatus for communicating and motivating metaphorically about winning in a sports team or other team competition comprises a broom handle having a first group of figurines attached thereto by their heads, and extending outwardly, as do bristles of a brush. The first group wears uniforms of a first team. A dustpan contains a second group of figurines, reposed in disorderly fashion in a dustpan, as they may have been swept there by the broom assembly. The second group is dressed with uniforms of one or more competitors of the first group team. The invention communicates a “clean sweep” metaphor, i.e., the first team wins, by overcoming the one or more competitors in the dustpan.
