A Guide to Hosting the Best Corporate Olympic Sports Day

To celebrate this year’s Olympics, we’re thrilled to introduce a special, fully-mobile work Olympics package – the Olympic Sports Day! This exciting new corporate event features a series of fun and dynamic Olympic-themed games designed to build stronger connections within your team.

Our mobile team brings everything needed directly to your location, anywhere in the UK. We provide all the equipment and handle all the logistics, with a dedicated on-site event team managing every aspect, from setup and execution to packing up.

With energetic music, themed activities and plenty of Olympic spirit, fun is guaranteed in this outdoor team building event. Plus, you’ll have a dedicated project manager working with you before the event, assisting with the planning of your activity – from personalised recommendations and venue selection to catering and any additional features or services you might need.

The Olympic Sports Day guarantees tons of fun with activities to suit everyone! It’s less about athletic skills and more about trying something new, sharing laughs with your team and celebrating team effort with a touch of friendly competition.

Featuring interactive and amusing Olympic team sports, it’s a chance for everyone to get moving, take a break from the usual routine and have a blast with their colleagues. This will help reduce stress in the workplace, boost motivation and help everyone feel more connected and accomplished.

And of course, this team building Olympics event is an opportunity to eagerly anticipate the Olympics and join in the celebration, promoting physical fitness, team spirit, healthy competition and a vibrant atmosphere!

The Olympic Sports Day event needs ample outdoor space to host the team building Olympic games, including fun inflatable installations that wouldn’t be feasible indoors. Whether it’s a stadium, a green park field or a country house garden, being outdoors will enhance the event’s atmosphere, encourage physical activity, promote a sense of freedom and adventure and allow everyone to dive into the Olympic spirit.

We’re here to help you find the perfect venue, whether you’re looking for something close to your office or something a bit further afield. With access to over 5,000 venues across the UK, we’ll make sure to secure the ideal venue for your corporate Olympics event.

Check out these top outdoor venue options across the UK:

To build excitement for the actual Olympics, select a date before July 26^th. If you prefer celebrating during the event itself, when people are eager to engage with the Games in various ways, select a date between July 26^th and August 11^th. Whichever you choose, pick a date to ensure maximum participation from your team, considering factors like booked annual leave or busy periods within your business.

Hosting your corporate Olympic Sports Day during this time is an ideal opportunity to align your corporate team building event with the global enthusiasm surrounding the Olympics and create a memorable experience for your team.

Theming is a big part of our Olympic Sports Day and we’ve really gone all out to make sure everyone feels the Olympic spirit.

To start the day, we’ll split your group into teams, with each team wearing different coloured vests to show who’s who and boost team spirit. We’ll kick things off with an exciting challenge, where each team have to create their own Olympic flag, using lots of colour and showing off their team’s unique style. After that, each team will proudly parade with their flag in a fun opening ceremony to get everyone pumped up for the Olympic team sports.

We’ve put together a mix of fun Olympic-inspired games with our own twists to make them exciting and memorable. We can also tailor the office Olympic game ideas to suit your group, so everyone can get involved at their own pace. You’ll find everything from classic sports day races like Hurdles and Space Hoppers, to field events such as Shot Put and Javelin, and games like Dodgeball, Volleyball and Badminton. Plus, we’ve got unique options like Human Table Football, Inflatable Assault Course, Axe Throwing and a thrilling Tug of War finale.

After all the team building Olympic games, we’ll conclude the event with a thrilling Olympic-style ceremony. There’ll be a podium, medals and a chance for the top three teams to celebrate like true Olympians, waving their team flags high in celebration.

To make the work Olympics event even more exciting and motivating, you can offer a variety of incentives for participants, beyond the medals already included in the Olympic Sports Day package. Consider giving prizes to everyone who takes part to ensure all employees feel appreciated and valued. To add a bit of friendly competition, you can also offer special rewards for the winning teams. Plus, providing food and drinks after the corporate Olympic games is always a great incentive, giving everyone a chance to relax, socialise and celebrate their efforts.

These incentives not only make the day more fun and engaging but also encourage teamwork and a healthy competitive spirit among colleagues.

To get everyone excited before the corporate Olympics event, you can set up some fun pre-event activities that build anticipation without giving away all the details. Share teasers about the fun challenges in store, hinting at some unique twists and surprises.

You could also send out regular updates featuring the latest Olympic news and highlights to get everyone into the Olympic spirit and build a sense of connection to the global event. Encourage friendly banter and team spirit with pre-event challenges or quizzes, and consider setting up a countdown to build anticipation as the day gets closer. This way, everyone stays eager and intrigued while also building a sense of community and excitement leading up to the big day.

The cost of the Olympic Sports Day event will vary based on the number of participants and the activities you choose to include in the event. Whether you’re planning for a small team or a large corporate event, we can tailor the package to fit your group size and your budget.
