Bushcraft Package
Available all year round - Full Day
About the day
GoWild Outdoors will show you the key methods of bushcraft and survival with fire lighting, including fire by friction, introduce you to carving skills, build natural shelters in the woods, and look at the natural world around us. Whilst there is an element of instruction and safety the course aims to give you the chance to show off your newly found skills through practical sessions throughout.
The afternoon is where you will bring your knowledge and teamwork together. Working in small groups with limited resources you will be required to work through scenarios that will not only test your woodland skills but ask you to find the resources necessary, in nature and yourselves, to achieve your aims. Only with good communication, problem resolution, information sharing and commitment to the desired outcome will you win through.
Flexible packages
All corporate days are fully catered to and are designed to suit your specific needs as a company.
Packages will be designed to incorporate activities that reflect the best interest of the day and sit in line with your objectives as a team.
With time for reflection and feedback throughout the day, there are invaluable opportunities to support and encourage your staff and managers and use the team-building experience as a platform for future development.
GoWild Outdoors aims to provide a different day that will allow all participants to:
- Engage with fun, engaging and challenging experiences that are constructively delivered in a supportive, reflective and professional.

What's included?
- Archery Experience

Activity 1 - Archery
Our have a go archery session will equip you with basic archery skills, getting you familiar and comfortable with a recurve bow and arrow, and getting you to fire those arrows into your target. The experience begins with your instructor giving the group a full safety briefing. The first important thing you’ll learn is to get your stance right and to hold the bow properly. Once you’ve got those all-important basics down, it’s all about focus – and a steady hand – as you fire those arrows at the target, hitting the bulls-eye. Your instructors will be beside you throughout the experience, to help you with any difficulties you have.
Activity 1 - Axe Throwing
After your archery experience, you will head over to the Axe throwing range. You’ll kick off with a safety brief and then learn the techniques of how to throw an axe. Firstly you will use a small double-headed spear pointed axe and then when you have the hang of throwing your axe you will move up to the mighty American Tomahawk Axe. Channel your inner warrior with this axe throwing experience. Our coaches will teach you to throw your axe safely and accurately.
There’s nothing more satisfying than hitting those archery and axe target boards!

Archers, take aim and fire in this fantastic team building event!
The Rules
Standard Game Play, Elimination. (All size pitches):
- All bows and arrows are lined up in the safe zone. When the game begins all players will need to rush to get their bows and gather as many arrows as possible. Once the player has returned to the attack zone they are able to start shooting.
- The rules are similar to dodgeball. A player is out if they:
- Are hit on any area of the body by an opposing players arrow
- Players equipment is hit by an opposing players arrow (mask, arrow, bow)
- If a player catches a bow that was shot at them in mid-air, the shooter is then out.
- A player can return to the game if:
- Their team mate catches another player out
- Their team mate knocks out one of their targets
- The winning team is the team who eliminates all the opposing team players first, if not all members have been eliminated within a time period of 10 minutes the winning team is the team that has the most players still in play.
- If the teams have the same number of players in play the game will go to sudden death. All players will get 1 arrow each, the first team to make a successful hit is the winning team.
Archery tag uses foam tipped arrows and combines archery and dodgeball to make one fun and energetic activity. Each player will be given a real bow and instructed on its use before going head-to-head with another team!
learnt to good use.
