Team Catapult
This amazing program combines team training and action! No limits set to your imagination and ingenuity building this giant slingshot. The more sophisticated and niftier the teams build these contraptions, the better the accuracy will be in the shooting contest that follows.
As ammunition we mostly use potatoes, as they are biodegradable. In winter we use snowballs. This team-training activity is ideal for large groups.
Description of this outdoor programme
The teams are given the task of constructing a large catapult from a supply of logs. It will be assembled solely with ropes, soundly tied together.
Once completed the teams aim the catapults at various targets such as metal barrels or large stacks of tins. A special catapult elastic enables the operators to hit targets with a distance of 15 to 50 metres.
This team development program is guaranteed to create excitement. Each hit is easily visible or audible. This competition concludes with the comparison of points and the declaration of the winner.
Safety
Before the catapults are allowed to operate, they will be subject to careful safety checks. This will reduce the risk of injury to a minimum.
Your choice of location
This outdoor training can be held at any suitable location in Switzerland or in surrounding neighbouring countries. Required is a field suitable for the group size. We're always happy to help.
Weather protection
This teambuilding event can take place in any weather. However, if you would like to offer this potato shooting in a sheltered environment, we can provide mobile marquees.
