Just for Fun
Fun-Filled Team Activities That Bring Everyone Together
“Fun is one of the most important – and underrated – ingredients in any successful venture. If you’re not having fun, then it’s probably time to call it quits and try something else.” -Richard Branson
Ok, you can’t argue with Richard Branson. And here at Great Race – we take fun seriously! Because we know that there are some amazing benefits that come from making fun a priority in your office.
We have a massive range of Just for Fun activities, providing you with a way to connect the team through play. All of our fun team events also have very real team outcomes, but at heart they are designed for your team to get out and have a really good time together. A team that plays together, stays together.
Getting your workmates out of the office to have fun is not a waste of time, it is a vital part of building your company or team. Its aides in communication and creates a sense of being valued.
Our Just for Fun Events
Reasons for Fun
Perhaps like some of our clients you are in the middle of merging two teams and need a fun activity to break the ice and cut through the awkwardness.
Perhaps you are looking for a welcome team event for your new staff or graduates that will show your commitment to fun and a happy work environment. Perhaps you are already an established team that has been working on a big project and need a reward or a distraction. You could also just be a team that already knows each other and recognises the importance of getting out and reconnecting with a fun activity! And for that we salute you!
Whatever basket you fall in to we promise to deliver an awesomely interactive, super effective team event.
Is your company crying out for a culture shift? Maybe a bit of fun is just what the doctor ordered!
The Benefits of Fun
The mention of the word fun is something that can send a chill down the spine of those powers-that-be who are seemingly more focused on productivity, but nothing is more productive than a happy team! And you need to have fun to be happy. Fun shouldn’t just be a reward, it needs to be a priority.
Great Race started with one very clear goal in mind. To provide an escape from the monotonousness of the daily grind by connecting teams through unforgettable experiences.
Humanise the Workplace
A fun team activity will allow your employees to show a different side of themselves. The ability to showcase your social side will enhance self-esteem and build trust among your colleagues.
Fun helps you to de-stress
Fun is free and it’s really really good for you! Smiling and laughing is proven to build your immune system. This gives you greater energy and motivation and helps you find contentment and gratitude.
Fun is really good for business
Allowing fin in the workplace makes (and keeps) employees happy. A good regular dose of having a good time together will provide relief to work related stress and thus allow employees to enjoy themselves. Happiness breeds productivity!
Why brands, teams, friends, and family can’t get enough of Great Race!
Just wanted to personally thank you for the session you and your team provided at the U@UNSW conference. It really met all our boxes and aligned with my debrief. Its especially refreshing to partner with an organisation who just get it without the need for micro-management. So… THANK YOU. I look forward to working with you guys again in the future.

Overall it was a perfect team day and all members of my team certainly enjoyed being out of the office and making their way around the city! Discovering new spots that they had not encountered previously, i.e. a couple of landmark around The Rocks. On behalf of everyone in the team, I would like to say Thank You very much for facilitating such a great day out for us… Cheers!

Our group absolutely enjoyed every part of the race. We experienced so much laughter, joy, banter and competitiveness. The fact that all of the challenges involved everyone, made it enjoyable. Our host Sam was THE BEST!!! She made the race exciting and made us all laugh especially at prize giving!! It’s been three days since the race and everyone’s still talking about it and are already talking about a rematch.

Our team had an absolute blast participating in the Amazing Race! It was the perfect mix of fun, friendly competition, and teamwork. We saw everyone’s competitive side come out, shared plenty of laughs, and built connections in new ways. The challenges were engaging and kept us on our toes, making for an unforgettable experience.
