Team Balance
This is a collection of team building activities using poles and posts. They can be used for teams of all sizes, but 8-10 people are ideal.
The challenges include:
The Tower of Hanoi
The Trust Fall
The Spider Web
The Horizontal Log
The Low Ropes
The Low Planks.
Asymmetrical See-Saw.
Stacks on the Mill.
Instructions for each one are available, and staff welcome suggestions as to how else the various activities can be used.
Rope Maze
Looking like a gigantic spider’s web, the rope maze provides a fun activity and can be used as a team challenge. It can also be used by pairs or simply as a way for one person to occupy some spare time. Each rope is a different colour, and the 4 ropes weave together across the maze area, attached to the posts around the edge. Each person attaches themselves to a rope (one person per colour) by using the waistband and clip and then follows the rope around the maze until reaching the end. The activity can be timed to add a competitive element.
The course can be done blindfolded or with one person giving non-verbal instructions to the participant using hand signals to direct their movements.
Team Problem Solving
There are two large A-frames and some wooden skis that can be used in various ways to develop problem-solving while nurturing relationships in a team. These are always available on the playing field.
