Team Building Event Rentals
Competition does what trust falls never did. Put people on opposing teams and get out of the way.
Team building fails when it feels like an exercise and works when it feels like a game. Nobody remembers a facilitated discussion. Everyone remembers who won.
Our team-building setups are competition formats: head-to-head, timed, bracketed. Give us your headcount and how long you have, and we'll build a format that actually finishes in the time available.
The competition formats
- Knockerballs. The single best team-building purchase we rent. Full-contact, absurd, and it flattens hierarchy instantly — nobody is a VP inside a knockerball.
- Archery tag. Team versus team with custom fields. Strategy plus adrenaline, and it works for people who don't want to be tackled.
- Axe throw simulator. Foam and velcro, head-to-head. Great bracket format — easy to run as a tournament across an afternoon.
- Two-lane obstacle courses. Timed relay between departments. Simple, loud, and the times give you a leaderboard.
- Zorb balls. Racing format, high spectacle, low skill barrier.
- Velcro wall. Individual challenge that draws a crowd. Good filler between rounds.
- 26-foot rock climbing wall. Three climbers at once, so you can race it.
Run it as a bracket
The mistake most companies make is renting attractions and letting people wander. Structure it: split into teams at the start, run timed rounds across two or three stations, keep score, name a winner. Same equipment, completely different event. We'll help you build the run of show — that's part of what we do.
Sized to your time window
A two-hour team building block with 60 people needs a different setup than a full-day offsite with 200. The constraint is rounds, not attractions: how many people can cycle through each station in the time you have. Tell us headcount and minutes and we'll do that math rather than guess.
Where it happens
- Office parking lot or grounds. Sandbagged on concrete, staked on grass.
- Indoor venue or warehouse. Ballasted. Knockerballs and archery tag both work indoors with enough floor.
- A park. Permit plus a generator per unit from us. Check the venue guides first — some parks prohibit inflatables.
The practical stuff
- Power: dedicated 20 amp circuit per blower within 100 feet, or generators from us — one per inflatable.
- Insurance: certificate naming your company and the property, 4.5% of the order at commercial locations.
- Rider limit: 200 lb per rider on most units. Archery tag, axe throw and the velcro wall have the widest adult range.
- Staffing: trained attendants run the stations and keep rounds moving. Strongly recommended for a bracket format.
Common questions
What's the best single attraction for team building?
Knockerballs, without much competition. It's the one that gets a quiet team laughing in under five minutes.
Can you run it as a tournament?
Yes. We'll help you structure rounds and staffing so it finishes on time with a clear winner.
Does this work indoors?
Yes, with enough floor area. Knockerballs and archery tag both run indoors. Ceiling height matters less than square footage for these.
What about employees who don't want to participate?
Build in a spectator-friendly station — velcro wall or axe throw draws a crowd. Not everyone has to play for it to work.
