A planning guide by Get Out! Events.
Combat archery, also known as archery tag, is one of the most energetic team building formats available in Singapore. Players split into teams, take cover behind inflatable bunkers and shoot foam-tipped arrows at each other. It mixes the thrill of dodgeball with the aim of archery, and it gets even reserved colleagues laughing within minutes.
This guide is for HR and admin teams considering combat archery for a department bonding session, a company activity day or a client social. It explains how a session runs, how to plan for safety and inclusion, what kind of venue works, and how to connect the fun back to teamwork.
Anyone can play: no archery experience is needed, and the basics take minutes to learn.
Instant teamwork: teams have to communicate, cover each other and agree tactics quickly.
Levels the field: a new joiner can tag a senior manager, which breaks down barriers.
Memorable: it feels nothing like a normal day at work.
Combat archery is memorable because it feels active and tactical, but the experience depends on good facilitation. It needs a clear safety briefing, fair team rotation, a suitable venue and enough time for groups to warm up before the competitive rounds. Without these, a few enthusiastic players dominate and others stand on the sidelines.
How It Works walks through a typical session. Safety and Inclusion covers rules and making it comfortable for everyone. Venue Planning covers space and weather.
