Our corporate race night brings all the excitement of a “Day at the Races” to your venue! This event is staffed by a professional compère and experienced tote staff. We use a large-screen video projection system and high-quality PA with horse racing video footage from various courses in the country including both jump and flat races.

Guests are invited to place bets with fun money, which can also be personalised to your company, as can the racecards.

Corporate race nights are fundamentally different to Fund Raising race nights, with no real money involved and we operate a format based strongly on fun and entertainment. Guests can bet individually or as teams, usually denoted by the table they are sitting at, and are all given fun money as the event opens. The person or team with the most money at the end of the event wins the prize!

Before our corporate race night starts our compère and tote sellers will introduce themselves to the guests, before handing out the fun money and branded racecards.

The race cards contain instructions but the compère will also verbally explain the format to the guests. Once the formalities are over and the form guide perused, the odds are announced and the bets are placed at the tote booths.

When the race finishes the winners will go to the tote booths and collect their winnings. A typical Corporate Race Night has four to eight races and lasts for around 2 hours.

At the end of the event the team will the most fun money are the winners, prizes are awarded to the top-scoring teams! Race Nights are just one of the many types of Fun Evening Entertainment that we can offer.

We had a fantastic night. What started as racing turned into Karaoke :). Your staff were excellent and ensured there was plenty of team bonding.” GILEAD

This is a fun team-based event that provides a great lead-in to a celebratory evening meal; an ideal ending to a team meeting, away day or conference.Our wine tasting starts with a light-hearted introduction to the art of wine tasting. We quickly move onto the wine tasting itself with participants working in small teams – 3, 4 or 5 per team is ideal – trying each wine in turn.

The format of the wine-tasting is that of a typical “pub-quiz” but with our interactive APP-based challenges on 7″ tablets, branded with your company logo, with each group having a limited time to taste and decide upon their answers for each wine. There are typically four rounds – reds, quickfire wine quiz, whites, and match the price with the wine. We select good quality wines representing major grape varieties and wine-producing regions from around the world. All wines tasted are readily available from good wine merchants so if you have a particular favourite you’ll be able to get hold a case or two! We maintain a quick pace – the laughter and noise build as the tasting progresses!

At the end of the wine tasting, we quickly score up and award prizes to the top-scoring teams – this could involve participants selecting a favourite wine from all those tasted or selecting a wine prize such as designer corkscrew.

The wine tasting typically lasts about an hour and a half. All wines are provided and, perhaps uniquely to our wine-tasting event, we allow all guests to choose how much (or how little) they want of each wine. No stingy pre-poured measures here! You can even have a bit more of a wine that particularly takes your fancy.

The wine tasting event is ideal as a stand-alone team event or to follow one of our other team building activities.

Team Building at Castlemartyr has never been so much fun. Our on site GPS driven treasure hunt using the latest app technology on tablets guides you through the estate.

Code Hunt Treasure Hunt is a tablet based event designed for hotels and resorts with extensive grounds across Ireland. Teams must walk the grounds in order to find codes we’ve left across the grounds and then once entered there are questions and challenges based on codes, ciphers, spies, tech and photo and video challenges which will give  you chance to be creative.

But it is not all about speed, the old grey matter will be required to discover the codes before the legs engaged.   The more codes you find, the greater the chance of answering more questions and beating your colleagues!

Movie Making brings out your creative spirit; it is fun, exciting and always gives a fantastic day with entertaining results. We provide all of the professional equipment required to create a high-quality film – you provide the creativity and performance.

The Event Format

Your group is divided into teams who will then work out what role they want to play. There is then a planning stage where teams will come up with a theme (or this can be pre-arranged) for their movie and create a storyboard of scenes/shots that they want to film.

Groups write, rehearse, select props and costumes… then filming begins. Depending on the venue, you will usually have the ability to shoot in different areas of the venue and the more creative you can be, the more impressive the end result.

The movie will be self-edited as you shoot so that all films can be watched and judged at the end of the event. We will then send you copies of your films post-event.

Film Makers’ Award Ceremony

If you have the budget, you may decide to combine film making with a themed Oscars Ceremony. Tearful acceptance speeches are required as the independent panel of expert judges hand out awards such as…

Best Actor/Actress

Best Movie

Best performance with clearly the least acting talent

Best / silliest comedy film prop use or costume

The ceremony takes place over an exclusive VIP dinner party, black tie is of course mandatory. (Please note that this is not included in the standard Movie Making event but do ask our team for more info).

Film making event benefits

Film making has substantial business benefits. Companies can use this event to promote their company or team values. There is a great deal to learn from the films that people make, they can be kept to be reviewed in the future and shared with the rest of the company.

Our role play actors have broad experience of working in the business sector and are skilled at delivering professional  feedback.

They have utmost respect for their corporate role-play training work and will approach your project with dedication and enthusiasm in addition to being well prepared.

Many of the actors we provide to businesses have extensive careers in TV and film bringing a high level of skill to your corporate-film production.

Why use role play actors  for training?  There are many reasons why using actors within your organisation can benefit you…

  • drama school qualified
  • trained specifically in roleplay techniques
  • experienced in organisational settings
  • trained to deliver feedback “in character”
  • Neutral as they’re outsiders

An actor isn’t embarrassed to create an awkward scene, act out a difficult scenario or react to delegates’ ideas for alternative methods of dealing with a suggestion.

An actor retains his persona, using his drama skills to react as his character and not as himself.

As outsiders to your organisation, our roleplay actors sidestep the established relationships and hierarchies within the workplace. Delegates aren’t faced with the awkwardness of roleplaying against a manager.

Actors with genuine reactions also make training dynamic and memorable and are able to re-enact the same scene over again. At an event, for instance, they are able to reproduce the same lines throughout, with a consistent level of enthusiasm and engagement.

This program prepares line managers to act as observers and assessors on assessment centres. The training will be hands on and will look at the role of assessors, the competency models and rating scales as well as delivering feedback to help the candidates create a development plan.

Time Management  is recommended for anyone who has a need to manage their day more effectively.

Laser Clay Shooting. Precision aiming and a steady hand are needed as you follow the  target clays as they fly upwards  through the air and fire at just the right moment. Are you an experienced marksman or have you never picked up a gun before? It doesn’t matter you’ll love this sport.

Laser Clay shooting uses  REAL shotguns that have been re-modelled to fire nothing more than an infrared beam at clays launched from a traditional clay launcher. The Result… all the excitement of a traditional clay pigeon shoot without any of the associated dangers or expense.

Clay Shooting can be run as an individual or team event at any of our preferred sites in Cork or we can come to you, anywhere nationwide, if you have a suitable location we can use.

You’ll be holding what looks and feels like a real shotgun, but it’s been deactivated and turned into a high-tech gun firing invisible infrared beams. There’s no recoil, which means you can get through may clays. You’ll need a steady eye and nerves as you try to hit the clays flying across the sky

Your fellow shooters will be shooting next to you at the same time which is  something you can’t do on a traditional clay shoot!

With multiple game options testing your aim plus speed games and targets launched from different angles, just like on a classic clay shoot, the competition is on with winner claiming victory. With larger groups we can combine with Target Archery.

 

“I believe the Laser Clay Shooting was one of the best moment they had during their stay in Ireland and they also really enjoyed your humour and fun you bring into it. I was really worried about the weather condition but thanks to you and your experience it was just a funny moment.” ADVANTAGE  ICO

“Everyone had a really good weekend. People really enjoyed the Clay Pigeon shooting… it has been a pleasure dealing with you.”   CITCO

“We all left able to hit the target, amazing considering none of us had never lifted up a bow before” AMAZON

VROOMMM!! is a lively team event where each team will be issued with both a ‘toolbox’ and the raw materials required to construct a Grand Prix winning Mean Machine.

The teams will have a 40 minute construction period during which different team members will be able to take charge of different aspects of the challenge such as suspension, aesthetics and the engine.

At the end of the set construction period, the teams will be cajoled into a period of testing and fine-tuning before racing their machines.

During the Big Race, each team will be judged by the Teambuild Constructors on distance travelled and the design of their roadster. Teams will go 2 at a time and the leader will be updated after each bout.

This final race serves as a hilarious grand finale to an energized and refreshing hour of team building.

Like Bingo, but instead of balls out of a machine, the “caller” shouts out his or her category from a square, Each square relates to an interest, hobby, life experience. The first person to have their card filled is the winner.

Small teams can thrive (even in lockdown) with new virtual MBT training sessions 

MBTI online  brings out the best and illuminates blind spots, of small teams.

What is an  MBTI workshop? Perhaps you manage a team and notice some conflict within?  Perhaps you’ve tried a team dinner and, whilst being good fun, the situation remained unresolved once the team returned to the office?  What if there was a team-building day that was lots of fun and which, at the same time, allowed everyone to learn something interesting about both themselves and also their colleagues?   What if you could then use this increased awareness to improve relationships and help the team function?  If this is your goal, then the MBTI workshop is definitely for you.

The MBTI Team build is designed to complement both a strategy workshop or a lighter team building day.

The MBTI session takes a half-day and is highly interactive and delivers learning in a safe and fun environment.

“Thanks very much for delivering the session on Tuesday. The team found it really helpful.” FACEBOOK

Thank you and your team for the amazing team building event.  It was a wonderful experience for the team to understand one another’s attributes and apply the concepts on team collaboration toward the goal during the second half.  We kept discussing MBTI profile assessment throughout the day and onto the evening activities.  It was definitely a rewarding team activity.”  VMWARE

“I just wanted to say thanks again for today – it was really brilliant and everyone’s been saying great things about the session!”  SAGE

Many companies who book this would also book The Box for the afternoon.  The Box works well as a complementary activity.

An auctioneering game in which teams have to bid in order to win the day.  Blind bidding is an exciting team challenge.  There are no ancient relics or masterpieces to be had or bargains to be sought but, with only the briefest of detail, teams have to bid for the challenges on offer.
What will be your strategy… low-risk events or complex high risks offering maximum points?

Teams then have to complete their challenges within the time and gain the prize.  Great fun,  this can be either indoors or out.

“On behalf of the team, I just wanted to say a really big thank you for your enthusiasm and energy at last Friday’s team-building event. To a man (and woman!) we left on a high and talked about how much fun we had had – I certainly slept well in the evening. I would say the event is very well run. Happy to promote your company to the great and good around the globe!”   UNILEVER UK

“Everyone had such an amazing time and it was great great fun.  Thank you to all the Team Build team for creating such an experience for us.” BMI HEALTHCARE

A Medieval team building event. You will be tasked to gather tools through a series of challenges, then design and build a Trebuchet type device to knock down your enemies castle wall and be crowned ruler. Your trebuchets must fire accurately at the opponents wall and raze it to the ground in a set number of shots. A great event for groups large and small, this creative yet action packed team building event from TeamBuild.ie is a winner everytime.

Your team has enjoyed another successful year. To date, you have made all the obvious improvements and your team is working hard. If your targets could remain constant then your team has cracked. The rewards for success, however, mean that you will be required to meet more stretching targets next year. Your challenge will be how to get your team to recalibrate their performance and identify what they are doing well and what can be changed so they respond proactively to next years challenges. A facilitated Team Strategy Day can help you to do this by deploying all of the team co-ordination and process tasks to a neutral facilitator. This enables you to focus on on your role as a team leader so you see the opportunities and take the appropriate action.

Every facilitated team day is tailored to the client’s needs. We use a combination of indoor business-related activities as well as outdoor team challenges. The combination of the two with structured feedback makes for a powerful package. An example agenda taking 2 or 3 days could include the following.

Andrew is an exceptional consultant who is energetic, resilient and intelligent, always upbeat and motivated. He is an asset for any Learning and Development Projects”. VODAFONE TURKEY

Drumming workshop is a natural Team Building activity. It’s fun, and both relaxing and creatively stimulating at the same time.

It takes people out of their heads and literally into their hands, feet and other senses.

It allows participants to experience a heightened sense of flow and unity as we play together on the African Djembe drums.

The drumming workshop starts by introducing the basic hand techniques we need and quickly moves into fun rhythm games like Call and Response, Mexican Wave etc. These build confidence and trust.

Then, as the participants start to gain confidence and sound better and better, we begin to build a more complex layered rhythm with the group.

Each subgroup performs a different simple rhythm that interlocks to create an impressive overall piece.

Typically individuals feel a great sense of uplift and empowerment as they hear the full rhythm emerge from the individual parts.

A perfect analogy for the team as an organisation of different people working together toward a common goal.

The rhythms we choose are engaging, mesmerising and uplifting.

There is a beautiful and timeless atmosphere shared together when the whole group locks into the rhythm and groove together.

“The drumming workshop was excellent by the way. Send our thanks to the event leader” ORSTED

Just wanted to drop a quick note to say thanks and give great feedback to Colin for facilitating the session. All was well received, everyone has loads of fun. PRIMARK

In this programme, participants will learn how to facilitate groups so that they can analyse complex information and agree a way forward.

Train The Trainer This programme starts by looking at the corporate learning context and how this is different from academia.  It also looks at how information is processed and how it can be forgotten quickly. With this in mind, the programme looks at the preparation phase starting with module design and room set up. Next it looks at starting off and delivering the learning modules using different training tools to maintain the learner’s interest. Finally the programme looks at people management training & closing on a high.

This programme supports the participants to manage the transition from graduate student to company employee.  The focus is on the person themselves and not simply theory.  Psychological models are used as input to activities that help increase self awareness. Time is allocated to exercises & gaining direct & honest feedback on their impact when working with others.  The first step is to increase self awareness & then to understand that others on a team may have different styles and different approaches to the same situation.  After the program participants will complete a task from their personal development plan.

In this programme, participants will learn how to increase their effectiveness and to create  personal development plans.

In this programme, participants will learn how to identify opportunities for cooperation, cross-selling & new accounts
