⚽️ Outdoor Activity 🛠 Build It

Ancient warfare comes to life in modern day Singapore! Teams construct functioning catapults and put them to the test in The Catapult Challenge, an exhilarating activity that challenges your engineering talents and ability to work as a group.

In the activity’s first phase, teams are given everyday materials, such as cardboard, wood, and string, and must design and build a live-fire catapult. Players find themselves bonding and practicing vital team building skills as they work to build their machine before time expires.

In the second phase, teams present their work to each other. Each team is scored on a series of criteria before moving on to phase three. After that, it’s on to the final phase: all out warfare! Armed with tennis balls for ammo, and with paint can castles to protect, each team deploys their catapult and attempts to take down the enemy fortifications. Will your civilisation fall? Or will your team come together to conquer all challengers?
