Archery Tag Overview

Thank you for considering the UWF Outdoor Adventures for your event. We’re excited to have you! Here are a few things to keep in mind when planning your visit.


What to Wear

Archery Tag is an all-body sport, so you should wear athletic clothing that provides a full range of motion. Long sleeve shirts and long pants are encouraged though not required. You'll need to wear closed-toed shoes, as there will be a lot of running and moving around. Masks are required and provided by Outdoor Adventures.

What Not to Wear

Anything you don't want to be scratched, dented, or dropped should be kept off, including watches and loose-fitting glasses. Jewelry such as dangling necklaces and earrings or rings can cause injury, so it should likewise be kept off.

What to Expect

We will begin with a brief period of introductions and the administration or collection of participant consent forms during your event. Following this will be an introduction to gameplay rules and how to use the equipment. After that time concludes, you will take the information and spend the remainder of your time engaged in team-style play with the staff's help. Most people will leave tired yet exhilarated.

Common Misconceptions

  • It's difficult to draw an arrow back. While many bows and arrows can be challenging to utilize, the bows used for our events only require approximately 20 pounds of force to draw them back fully.
  • Being hit by an arrow is extremely painful. Our arrows do not have a traditional tip but instead have a foam block resembling a giant marshmallow at the end to minimize impact force. Using these tips significantly lessens the velocity of the arrows and helps make the gameplay enjoyable.
  • I'm too old (or young) to participate. You are never too old to play. Archery Tag is a fun activity for a wide age range of participants. To ensure our participants get the most out of their experience and due to equipment regulations, we require an age range of 10 and up.
