Corporate Bumper Ball Event

Overview

In bumper ball, participants climb inside transparent inflatable spheres that enclose the upper body and then play football. The outcome is predictable: nobody can play football properly, and that is not the aim. The format makes collision completely safe and in doing so lets adults do something they would not otherwise do.

Why participation is so high

• No skill gap. A good footballer loses their balance inside the sphere too; experience confers no advantage.
• Low embarrassment threshold. Everyone falls over, so falling over is funny rather than humiliating.
• Short rounds. Matches of five to seven minutes; longer than that inside a sphere is exhausting.
• Visual output. The video this event produces is usually among the most-watched pieces of internal communications content the company makes.

The levelling effect across a mixed group

Where a group spans several countries, seniorities and sporting backgrounds, this is one of the few activities in which absolutely nobody has an advantage and everyone looks equally ridiculous. That is the whole mechanism — it is a levelling device rather than a game, and it is the right choice when the point of the afternoon is that a group which has never met stops being formal with each other.

The physical reality

Moving inside the sphere is more tiring than expected and the temperature rises quickly. Rounds are therefore kept short with breaks out of the sphere in between. Not recommended for people with neck or lower back conditions, because sudden head movement occurs on impact. Glasses are removed.

Setup and formats

An artificial pitch, a grass area or a large indoor space can be used. The spheres are brought and inflated by the operator, and power on site is all that is needed. Besides football, relay races, last-one-standing and team-toppling games are played with the same equipment, which keeps the station from being stuck on a single game. It is usually planned as a 45 to 90 minute station within a company festival or family day.
