Archery
Archery really is the sport of Kings and needs little introduction! The tense atmosphere in the arena with the shooter going for gold! Our GNAS and Archery-GB qualified instructors can bring top quality instruction sessions to School lessons, Company Family Fundays, Activity Away Days and Corporate Events alike.
Here at Altitude Events we like to mix the sessions up with some point scoring as well as fun games. This guarantees something for everyone to partake in and our provision of this activity will be tailored to suit the clients on the day and their needs. Our hire package is suitable for adults or children (over 8yrs) or a mixture of both. We have a wide range of bows and arrows available to cater for most people and situations.

Human Table Football
Football, or Soccer(!), grew on the UK population in 2012 when Team GB took to the field. With the Women’s team proving to be more successful (and growing ever since) than the men’s, the nation really got involved in the action.
Now you can bring the football to your event with Altitude Events’ Human Table Football.
This human size version of the classic foosball game provides hours of fun for adults and children alike (8yrs and above). The nature of the game makes it a level playing field meaning it proves popular to those interested in football or not. Get you team of 5 to the final and grab that Gold!

Laser Clays
As with Archery, Shooting is one that that gets the pulses racing! Tense on the firing line, PULL! HIT! TWICE!
Laser Clay Pigeon Shooting is an electronic version of the popular country sport of Clay Pigeon Shooting and its one of our favourite activities. Laser Clay Pigeon Shooting uses real (but de-activated) shotguns and players shoot laser beams at plastic discs fired from a trap. The discs are then collected and re-used so no waste is left on the ground.
Using the latest system and scoreboards for increased accuracy, here at Altitude Events we can take you through four different game modes depending on time available. With 5 shooters at a time, we guarantee fun and excitement as you track the clay before pulling the trigger! Once started you won’t want to stop!

Table Tennis
An Olympic Sport since 1988, Table Tennis has provided hours of entertainment on our TV screen at the Olympics. How the professionals keep the ball on that table whilst hitting it so hard is outstanding! Cannot. Look. Away!
Our Table Tennis Table is one of our BRAND NEW hire activities. The Table that we hire is a top quality commercial unit with a playing surface over 9ft in length. It comes with 4 bats and balls.
Whether your game is Table Tennis or not, it is fun and challenging for all the family.

Volleyball
Now there is no better place in the world than Rio for Volleyball surely! It’s sandy beaches, warm weather and carnival atmosphere cannot be rivalled anywhere else…except your event obviously!
Inflatable Beach Volleyball is one of our all time favourite hire activities and one of our most addictive games. The huge Volleyball Inflatable measures over 20ft x 40ft and is suitable for adults and children (8yrs and up) alike. Our Inflatable Beach Volleyball can play games of anything up to 4 a side but it also works very well with smaller numbers such as doubles meaning it’s very flexible in its use.

Wacky Olympics
With the 2016 Rio Games around the corner, Altitude’s ‘Wacky Olympic’ Corporate Team Building Event embraces everything that is true and great about these iconic occasions. Our Wacky Olympics Team Building event is the perfect cross between a ‘School Sports Day’ and the classic ‘It’s a Knockout’ integrating huge inflatables with the more well-known Olympic pastimes. Our collection of races, football, shooting, beach volleyball, swimming and even equestrian or gymnastic activities provide something for everyone irrespective of their age or ability! In fact, in all of our Wacky Olympic disciplines, fitness levels have very little bearing on success! And although our stadium may not be as impressive as the one in Stratford or the ‘Birds Nest’ in Beijing we promise to bring the arena alive with colour, energy and laughter.

From Altitude’s base in East Sussex our instructors have brought these fantastic activities to events in most counties across the Southeast over the past few years including West Sussex, Surrey, Kent, Essex, Hampshire, London, Berkshire and Buckinghamshire.
