# 4 Sprint Board


At the end of the sprint planning meeting, a sprint board is created. A sprint board is classified into three columns - work to be done, being done and done. At the beginning of the sprint the features to be developed and the associate tasks will be umder 'to be done'. The team members

are requested to volunteer the work. Once the work gets volunteered it moves on to the 'being done' column and finally when it gets done, it moves to the 'done' column. Work volunteering is an integral part of scrum. Work volunteering brings in more ownership and pride in work.

When the tasks are progressing, the team members can update the effort required to complete the remaining part of the work on a daily basis. This helps to forecast the total effort required to complete the balance activities in the sprint
