The Time Is Ripe: Plan Your Office’s Outdoor Team-Building Today

With Spring time upon us, now is as good a time as ever to start planning your outdoor team-building activities. The sun starts shining a little brighter, the days last longer, and the weather gets warmer as the chances of rain diminish.

It’s certainly the perfect time before summer starts setting in and the temperatures shoot up, so what options are worth considering since there’s a plethora of choices for outdoor activities in Malta?

Before we begin

Before diving into it, there are two things you need to do first. Step one, consider your team. Planning out an event simply because one person enjoys an activity or set of activities will result in a less enjoyable day out for the whole team. Secondly, establish the budget for the event. Again, success will be diminished if you set out for a particular activity but then strip it down to the bare bones to make it fit the budget.

Simply put, find out what it is your team would love to do that ensures a stronger bond by the end of it all, consider all the options available and determine your budget before committing to the event and announcing it. It sounds pretty straightforward, but it’s surprising how easy it is to get caught up in the excitement and overlook these two critical factors!

To be or not to be active is the question

Once you’ve got feedback from your team, answering this question becomes quite easy, unless it’s a 50-50 split – but don’t worry, there are still solutions to that! Figuring out what your team wants means you’ll be able to decide if their preferred method of winding down is via laser tag, paintball, or a wine-tasting event at a vineyard following a day of art-making.

It’s unlikely that every colleague will have the same tastes or propensity to try new things, so you must ensure everyone is on board with what you’ve got in mind. If you’re looking to surprise them, you’d do well to try and subtly find out what will likely engage them and then take it from there!

Ready-made or tailor-made, we do it all

As event planners extraordinaire here at MYEventPlanner, we’ve crisscrossed this island and its sister islands plenty of times and even gone beyond local shores! There’s pretty much no limit to the types of team-building events we offer, whether it’s one-offs that take up just a few hours or ready-made packages of events that will take up most of the day.

Our Action Package has different activities, including laser tag, paintball, tag archery, escape rooms and pistol shooting to choose from. Our Games Night Package can be taken pretty much anywhere, whether it’s a villa you’ve rented for the day or back at the office for some after-hours fun. The Adventure Package means you’ll get to try activities such as ziplining, rock climbing and abseiling, while there are entire Sports Packages that range from watersports to horse riding and everything in between!

We can also help you plan day trips across Malta, as well as Gozo and Comino, along with some good-natured treasure hunting and sightseeing, possibly helping you see Malta and all it has to offer through a new set of eyes!

Let’s make your big day a success!

Even when you’re done browsing through our vast catalogue of team-building event ideas, you’ll be glad to know that that’s not all we offer.
