Breaking Records and Building Legends
The Dragon Trebuchet Challenge!
6 Houses. 1 Epic Battle.
In the most ambitious event we’ve ever hosted, FOCUS Adventure proudly brought to life a high-octane, fantasy-inspired programme: The Dragon Trebuchet Challenge! With an astounding company-wide mega effort gathered on a single day, the event not only shattered our previous attendance records—it also redefined what large-scale teambuilding can achieve.
Held within the expansive space of an entire event hall in Singapore EXPO, packed with energy levels off the charts, the event was more than just your typical staff conference. It was an immersive, unforgettable experience that merged creativity, collaboration, and a healthy dose of friendly rivalry.
Six Houses, One Goal
Participants were divided into six proud Houses, each with a singular mission: to design, build, and deploy a Dragon-themed Trebuchet capable of launching projectiles to demolish rival castles. From the get-go, every house got busy with strategic planning, deployment of resources, ingenious engineering, and a hall full of cheering (and jeering), bringing their unique identity and spirit into play. While alliances were tested and basketballs were flung, what stood firm was the unwavering camaraderie and unity that marked each team’s effort.
Why Trebuchets?
The trebuchet, a medieval siege engine, is the perfect metaphor for strategic force and momentum—qualities essential to any forward-moving, people-first organization. In line with the dragon mascot, the Dragon Trebuchets released their payload through the air, overcoming obstacles and meeting their targets.
Beyond the Battle
Though the competition was fierce, the real victories were found in the laughter, the leadership that emerged, and the connections that deepened among teammates. The Dragon Trebuchet Challenge! wasn’t just about knocking down walls—it was about breaking barriers, and launching a culture of collaboration sky-high.
