Top 5 outdoor team events
May 2, 2011 : News
With the sun peeping from the clouds more frequently and a definite warmth in the air, now is the time to start planning your summer team event to thank and reward your staff.
Maximillion offers a wide range of outdoors team building activities to suit different group sizes, objectives and budgets. To help you choose the right one for your team, here are my top five:
It’s A Knockout
Once a prime time TV show, and now a team building classic, this inflatable fun event is as popular as ever. Nothing breaks down barriers more than seeing your colleagues dive through soapy tunnels and slide down slippery slopes. The professional compere provides hilarious commentary and keeps energy levels high. Add a BBQ to create the perfect summer team away day.
Checkpoint Challenge
The beauty of this treasure hunt style event is that it incorporates activity checkpoints which can range from outdoors pursuits and team building challenges to drumming and eco-fashion. The event can be tailored to meet your objectives while offering something for everyone. One group even included salsa dancing, painting and mixology!
Highland Games
Ideal for team building away days and incentive programmes, create your very own clan gathering and experience some of Scotland’s best traditions. Choose from a number of exhilerating activities including pipes and drums, falconry, fun field and Scottish dancing. Or go all out and treat participants to a clan battle between tartan-clad warriors!
School’s Out!
A touch of nostalgia and a huge dollop of fun are guaranteed as we take your team back to their school days. Old favourites such as wheelbarrow, obsctacle and 3-legged races can be complemented by more modern games like inflatable table football and gladiator joust. Round off your event with a buffet dinner, giant lawn games and an 80s style disco.
Espionage
This city centre spy mission can be set in anywhere in the world: London, Edinburgh, Prague, Malta, Barcelona, Brussels – you name it, we’ve been there! Teams bond as they meet friendly and enemy agents, solve cryptic clues prove their powers of observation and demontsrate their tracking skills to prove their worth as bona-fide spies.
