Koob games are real competition, not a contrived activity.  Players will want to play again and their strategies will continue to improve and adapt. 

Look what Koob can offer your Team-building Programs.

   Koob facilitates inter-personal discovery through   activity and social interaction.

  Koob builds camaraderie within staff and student groups

  Koob is great for retreats in need of unique, flexible programs

  Key concept:  the team that wins is the team that is most effective at helping its weakest player make a contribution 

Koob is a throwing game developed in Sweden during the Viking era, over 1000 years ago.  The game requires teamwork, problem-solving skills, and strategy to achieve success. 

The simple underhand throwing skill allows all players to participate free of inhibition.  Appropriate playing surfaces include grass, sand, snow, carpet, or dirt.

Concepts to consider:

Koob can act as an ice-breaker/introduction opportunity, or an evaluation tool for potential leadership positions.  It can also be just a recreation outlet.

Players reveal a variety of behaviors during the game:

  Supportive team-builder who encourages teammates

  Dominant personality who attempts to control and direct the game

  Shy introvert who refuses to engage fully, but blossoms with personal success

  Fiery competitor who plays to win

Build on the spirit developed during the game to energize other aspects of your meetings and retreats.
