Earn your Stripes
This is not your average team day. Earn Your Stripes is a pressure-tested, instructor-led challenge designed to push teams out of their comfort zones and into formation. Expect fast drills, physical missions, code-breaking tasks and problem-solving under pressure. It’s intense, disciplined and wildly effective. You’ll be put to the test, not just in strength, but in communication, resilience and how well you function as a unit when things get tough. Survive the course, pass the missions, and maybe just maybe you’ll earn your stripes.
Years of PLAY
Programs
Overall, it was an excellent event! Dwain and Anita were wonderful to work with. We’ve had a series of great events over the past few years and we’re really excited to continue the relationship with Corporate Challenge. Thank you for your work on our event. We were really happy with it!
I enjoyed the challenge very much, we had a ball, and it added to team building. Some of us have hidden talents – so good to see! Thanks again guys, it was great fun and you did a terrific job keeping us all to time, organising everything, and helping us
To say the group were concerned about this Team Building activity prior to the event is an understatement! However all of these concerns were put to the side once John came into the room and got us going. The event was engaging, fun, well organised and really got us working together… a week later and we are still talking and laughing about it.
We had quite a range in the participant ages but the activities were suited to all, and all found them to be enjoyable and a lot of fun. A great morning working with colleagues that we would not normally do due to the nature of our roles.

How it Works
Welcome
It all begins with a mission briefing. Teams are split, handed rulebooks, and introduced to their instructors, who don’t sugar-coat expectations. From here, it’s game on. Through a series of structured team challenges, participants must work together to complete tasks, earn points, and climb the ranks.
Play Based Challenges
The activities are a mix of physical, mental, and strategic challenges, think tactical transport, message relay, code breaking, survival scenarios, and even a little friendly interrogation. While the format draws inspiration from military team training, the intensity is always tailored. Whether your team prefers a fast pace or a steady walk-through, the program adapts to ensure everyone is involved and supported.
Competition
Each mission builds on core team skills: communication under pressure, shared decision-making, trust and accountability. There’s no hiding; every team member plays a vital role. Points are awarded not just for speed or strength, but for problem-solving, cohesion and leadership.
The Winners Are…
As the final challenge is completed and ranks are revealed, teams walk away with more than just bragging rights. Earn Your Stripes gives teams a chance to prove what they can achieve when the pressure’s on, and walk out stronger, more connected, and ready for anything.
