Telematch is a very active and fun team building activity with a mixture of competitive team relay games in a set format. Best suited to an outdoor beach, garden or park location, this team building program comprises multiple activities with the teams competing against each other by following a set path. Games include puzzle solving, competitive sports and team strategy activities.
- Planning, communication and organization skills
- Delegation, time management and leadership skills
- Solving challenges as one team
- Being competitive with other team members
- Funny, enjoyable and interactive afternoon
- Getting to know your team colleagues
Participants are put into teams and must complete a series of short games and puzzles by working together to progress through their team’s route. As teams complete challenges the next challenge in succession will be revealed to them. Teams play in competition and will receive scores for each game depending on their performance. The team with the highest score in the end will be declared winner.
Clients may select the activities they wish to include in the team building in advance from the extensive list available or leave the selection in the trusted hands of Making Teams.

This team building activity normally takes place in the resort, on the beach or at a local park. As long as there is plenty of space, the Telematch can take place in almost any location and can also be adapted for an indoor program. For larger groups we recommend a sports stadium or an indoor complex with spectator stands adding to the atmosphere of competitive team building event!
The winning team is decided after all games and rounds have completed by adding the points scored by teams during the games, or will be the first team to compete the final challenge depending on the event format you select.
Insurance and instructor supervision at all times is an important safety factor, and in the event of an emergency of team member withdrawal, transport and medical backup will be standing by.
The event briefing and debrief takes place at the activity location. The group is separated into teams and introduced to their facilitators, then the lead facilitator gives an introduction of the event including (safety) instructions and objectives for the activity.
During the debrief, the facilitator discusses the event challenges and asks each team questions to assess their performance before announcing the winning team (if applicable).
Briefing and debrief usually take around 15 minutes each but can be extended for more in-depth analysis of team performance.
The half day program takes up to 4 hours and includes 7 games. The full day program is up to 8 hours and includes up to 12 games.
