Group during an evening programme
Built in blocks

Not everyone can do the whole day

At almost every hen or stag party there's someone who can't be there the whole day. A colleague who can only come in the evening, a sister with small children at home, someone coming from far away who only joins halfway. That often only becomes clear late, by which time the programme has already been planned for a group that's complete from start to finish. We'd rather build it the other way round: in blocks that stand on their own, with a clear moment when someone can join in without the rest having to start again.

In practice that means a programme of two or three blocks with a break in between, and the break is when people can join in. Anyone who arrives later hears in two minutes where the group is at and then simply slots into a team. Anyone who has to leave early goes at a natural point rather than halfway through an activity. That's why we want to know in advance who's there and when, not just how many people are coming. We bring the equipment and the hosts, and if you don't have a venue, we'll arrange one.

Why a block format works better

  • Each block stands on its own and has its own result
  • The break in between is the moment to join in
  • Anyone who has to leave early goes at a natural point

What we want to know beforehand

  • Who is there from the start and who arrives later
  • Whether anyone has to leave early
  • The number of participants at the busiest moment

Frequently asked questions

A few people can only join later. Is that a problem?

Joining later is fine without the programme stalling, as long as we know in advance. We then put the joining point in the break between two blocks, so anyone who arrives can slip into a team and hasn't missed half an hour of instructions.

How many blocks are there in a day?

A day with us usually consists of two or three blocks of an hour to an hour and a half, with a break in between. More blocks make the day long, and then the energy drops away in the last part.

Does someone who only takes part in one block count in the results?

Each block has its own result, so anyone who takes part in a block counts fully in it. At the end we add the blocks together for the final ranking, and nobody notices that not everyone was there the whole time.

Do we need to know the exact number of participants when we book?

An estimate is enough when you book. About a week beforehand we need to know the number at the busiest moment of the day, because that's what we base the equipment and the number of hosts on.

Do we also pay for someone who only takes part in one block?

Someone who only takes part in one block costs nothing extra, because we don't charge per person. The number of participants at the busiest moment does count, though, because that's what we base the equipment and the number of hosts on.
