The Outdoor Office Olympics

Oudoor Office Olympics

Don’t just watch the Olympics every four years – join the fun with our Outdoor Office Olympics! We’re thrilled to offer this Olympic-themed team building event that captures the spirit of the global games. From the unforgettable energy of London 2012 to the innovative competitions of Tokyo 2020, and building anticipation for Paris 2024, our event brings the excitement of the Olympics directly to you.

What is the Outdoor Office Olympics? 

Much like the world tunes in for the Olympic Games, now you can participate in your very own Olympics-themed event. The Outdoor Office Olympics is the ultimate team building experience, designed to unite you and your colleagues in fun competition. Representing various nations, teams will face off in a series of Olympic-style games, each with a unique, fun twist designed to keep things lively and engaging.

What activities are in the Outdoor Office Olympics?

Kick off the excitement with our Opening Ceremony, a fun warm up to get you ready for an Olympics adventure. As the games begin, teams will dive into an array of Olympic-themed challenges designed to energize and inspire. You’ll compete in Olympic Games such as the following:

  • Team Relay: Channel your inner sprinter and work together to pass the baton to victory.
  • Hurdles: Leap over obstacles in a race that tests speed and agility.
  • Javelin: Throw your worries away and aim for the stars in this classic field event.
  • Skipping: Jump rope with a twist, where coordination and rhythm are key.
  • Horse Racing: Get creative and race to the finish line in this playful take on equestrian events.
  • Hockey: Keep control in a game where precision leads to points.
  • Tennis: Serve up some fun in a game that keeps everyone on their toes.

After the head to head races, the excitement continues with the Team Sport Tournaments. Engage in five-minute matches of:

  • Football: Collaborate to outmaneuver the opposing team and score the winning goal.
  • Volleyball: Spike and serve your way to victory.

After the head to head races comes the Team Sport Tournaments. With five minute matches of Football and Volleyball, teams will have the opportunity to work together to beat the opposing country teams.

How does the Outdoor Office Olympics end?

No Olympic event would be complete without a parade of the flags and extinguishing of the Olympic Flame! Although we skip the live flames for safety, our symbolic extinguishing of the Olympic Flame captures the essence of the traditional Olympic closure, bringing our exhilarating games to an end with a touch of theatrical flair. After all the games are complete, scores are tallied and the results are announced. Medals are awarded to first, second and third place and winning countries are invited to pose for photo opportunities which rival any Olympic photo finish.
