Axe throwing

Get your team outside in the crisp winter air to try their hand at something new!

You can guarantee that very few, if any, of your delegates will have done anything like this before! Think darts, but on a much larger scale — you and your colleagues will throw axes at a painted wooden target, with its own unique scoring system and rules about how far your feet must be from the target.

The throwing axe is designed specifically for this activity, and was used in medieval times by foot soldiers (and occasionally knights), who would whirl it around their head for maximum penetration into the head of their enemy.

Nowadays, it's more about fun than warfare, so there's no whirling — just a lot of whooping as teams compete to score the most points this Christmas. Our expert guides are on hand to introduce the sport and demonstrate this unique skill.
