Giant Relay Team Building Activity for Corporate Groups
Everyone knows Tic Tac Toe. Nobody has played it like this. Trebound's Tic Tac Toe is a full-body, high-energy relay version of the classic game scaled up for corporate teams and played with running, split-second decisions, and real-time strategy.
Teams race to place coloured cones on a giant 3ร3 grid made of hula hoops, competing to form a line horizontal, vertical, or diagonal before the opposing team does. The game is fast, frantic, and fiercely competitive.
The moment the displacement rule activates, allowing players to move the opponent's cone, the strategy deepens instantly. What starts as a sprint becomes a chess match at full speed.
Two teams line up at opposite ends. A giant 3ร3 grid of hula hoops is placed between them. Each team is assigned a colour of cones.
One player from each team sprints to the grid simultaneously and places their cone in any empty hoop. They sprint back and tag the next player in line.
If no line is formed after all cones are placed, the next player may relocate one of their team's existing cones to an empty slot โ but cannot add a new one. This displacement rule turns the game into a strategic battle at sprint pace.
The first team to form three cones in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line wins the round. The best of multiple rounds determines the champion.
Book with Trebound and every detail is managed end-to-end. Your team shows up and plays.
