Santa’s on his way, and that means you need to start thinking about throwing a holiday staff party. If you’re trying to do something different this year, consider going ax throwing at one of Scottsdale’s new ax-throwing venues. Yes – ax throwing has arrived in Scottsdale just in time for Christmas. When you’re planning a holiday staff party, there are a few things you need to consider if you want to make it a great time: your budget, inclusivity, and most of all, whether or not people will enjoy it.
Budget
If you’re hosting a holiday staff party, the budget’s going to be a significant factor in what you decide to do. Corporate holiday party budgets have gone down considerably in recent years after the 2008 Recession led to cost-cutting measures everywhere. But more modest staff parties aren’t necessarily a bad thing, even as your bottom line improves. Your staff would likely appreciate a bonus more than a lavish party, and activities like ax throwing are affordable alternatives to fancy dinners and booze-fueled get-togethers. Ax throwing in Scottsdale at places like the Backyard Axe Throwing League (BATL) is a great way to entertain many people on a budget.
Inclusivity
Anytime you plan an activity for a staff party or corporate team-building event, you have to be sensitive about inclusivity. Is everyone on your team physically able to join in, and if not, what’s an alternative you can plan to include everyone? Having someone with a disability on your staff doesn’t necessarily mean that alternative sports like ax throwing are out of the running. Ax throwing venues like BATL have proven exceptionally inclusive in cities where they already operate, like Toronto, Calgary, and Ottawa. With visits from the likes of Makrina Morozowski, Paralympic wheelchair basketball bronze medallist, and “Three Points of Contact,” a popular blog about traveling with a disability, including blindness, they’ve shown ax-throwing is open to anyone who wants to try. Finding an inclusive venue is the first step; the second is making sure everyone wants to go.

Christmas parties don’t have to be a drag to plan and participate in. There are plenty of alternatives to consider, including ax throwing in Scottsdale.
