Fun Company Olympics Ideas for Work Events

Looking to energize your team, spark friendly competition, and create a memorable work event? Company Olympics are the perfect solution. But instead of boring, low-energy office games, imagine a Field Day for Adults style event — complete with real games, scoring, and a competitive spirit that your employees will love.

Here’s how to take your office Olympics games to the next level and make your next work event unforgettable.

🏅 What Are Modern Company Olympics?

Traditional office Olympics often include things like chair races, paper toss, or typing competitions. While nostalgic, they can feel low-energy and gimmicky.

A modern company Olympics event transforms the concept into a high-energy, competitive, and inclusive experience. Think team relays, dodgeball, capture the flag, and tug-of-war — all with points, scoring, and medals for top performers.

At Forever Field Day, we specialize in corporate field day events that take this concept to the next level. Every game is structured to maximize participation, engagement, and fun.

⚡ Top Company Olympics Ideas

Here are some of our favorite office Olympics games that work for large or small teams:

1. Capture the Flag

Teams compete to capture the opponent’s flag while defending their own. Strategy, speed, and communication are key.

2. Dodgeball

High-energy and hilarious, dodgeball gets everyone moving and laughing. Perfect for office rivalry turned friendly competition.

3. Relay Races

Three-legged races, sack races, or obstacle relays keep everyone active and engaged. You can even create custom challenges themed around your company.

4. Tug-of-War

Nothing builds team spirit faster than a good tug-of-war. Strength, strategy, and cheering on teammates make it a classic for a reason.

5. Mini Challenges & Skill Games

Add cornhole, giant Jenga, or water balloon toss for variety between high-intensity games. Track points across all events to declare a winning team.
