Some Like It Hot: Why Now’s The Perfect Time For An Office Sports Day

While the adage suggests striking while the iron is hot, the same isn’t really recommended when it comes to organising outdoor events in Malta. That’s why between now and May to early June is probably your best bet for taking your office squad for sun-drenched fun before summer sets in, the beaches get packed, and the UV index starts scoring top-tier Eurovision points.

Reward now, benefit later

Rewarding your team with a day out and time to talk about all things non-work related is always a great way of disengaging from the routine and doubling up on office enthusiasm. The Maltese weather at this time of year is synonymous with outdoor activities, as it’s not too hot to sap the energy, but it’s also not too cool that extra effort is needed to break the ice.

What options exist to spice things up in a non-workplace setting for your workforce? While there are plenty of ideas to choose from (check out our catalogue or get in touch to learn more), our favourite recommendation would be the timeless office Sports Day. Of course, it’s up to you how competitive or not you’d like to make it, and there’s also the option to host it at the seaside and add a savoury barbecue on the beach!

To beach or not to beach…

That’s a question not quickly answered, but thankfully we offer both. Our Funky Sports would have participants take on the weird and wonderful side of sports with Fancy Dress Relay Relays, Dizzy Bat, 5-in-1 races, and more. Alternative Sports Day pits participants into matches of inflatable darts and archery, Zorb bowling, football billiard, and sumo challenges.

However, if you’re of the “life’s a beach” opinion and find yourself sifting through the sand at every opportunity (and your team is of a similar mindset, mind you), then our Beach Sports Day package might be the one for you. We assure you it’s even more fun than it already sounds!

Dress participants up in typical summer garbs like flippers, tyers and goggles before setting them off to race one another; find what secrets the sea holds with our underwater scavenger hunt; take part in a good old Tug of War battle while saving enough energy for some food and drinks once the sports side of the equation has been completed.

Now’s the time to get going!

Summer will be upon us in no time, meaning more crowded beaches and outdoor spaces, which is why now’s the perfect time to give us a shout and plan your office’s big day out before the summer heat strikes. There are plenty of activities to choose from, but if there’s something you’ve got in mind that’s not covered by this piece or our catalogue, let us know, and we’ll see if we can do something about it!
