Why American Football?
“The Ultimate Team Sport”
We often refer to American Football, or Gridiron, as the ultimate team sport—and for good reason. To score those touchdowns, every player must work together, stay on the same page, and rely on one another. It’s all about collaboration, strategy, and trust, making it a perfect fit for team building activities.
Whether you’re part of a corporate group, a school team, or planning a bachelor party in Tauranga, our American Football experience offers a unique and fun opportunity to come together and achieve a shared goal. It’s an ideal activity for groups seeking something fresh, exciting, and truly different.
We focus on four key aspects in our Football Experience: Teamwork, Energy, Discipline, and Fun. Over the course of a 2 to 2.5-hour session, your group will learn the basics of the sport—throwing that perfect touchdown pass, catching a tough one, learning the art of the tackle, and blocking to make room for the ball carrier—all while suited up in real Gridiron gear.
We prioritise safety and ensure the experience is accessible to everyone, no matter their fitness level, age, or gender. Our sessions are structured to be fun, safe, and inclusive, giving everyone the opportunity to participate fully.
The most important thing is that
“Everyone always leaves the field with a big smile”

“Great activity!
We had a super fun afternoon with a group of 16 people. Thank you Jordy, your enthusiasm about this sport is fantastic and it was an active, versatile and super fun afternoon for us with colleagues. Highly recommended!”
Peter Boeren
Bachelor Party
We had this clinic yesterday with a bachelor party and it was, in one word, AMAZING!
The gentlemen who give the clinic are top notch. It is also great that the activity is for everyone, everyone can participate. At the end of the clinic you will understand the game and the rules a lot better, which is an extra nice bonus when you see it on TV.
Gentlemen, thank you again!!
