More teams , more money . We suggest teams be structured between 6 and 10 players . For large number we suggest mixed teams male and female. The games are designed to accommadate 3 teams per inflatable . If we have 18 teams per show , teams will be in groups of 6 . Six teams will go to inflatable one , 6 teams will go to inflatable 2 and 6 teams will go to inflatable 3 . We all then meet back at the stage . Then 6 teams will go to inflatable 4 , 6 tems to inflatable 5 and 6 teams to inflatable 6 .Then it's back to stage and we all swap round and keep going round the course until everybody has done all the inflatable . 6 teams will be going through to the semi final from and 4 teams will be in the final. Knockout Roadshow can accommadate 36 teams in one show Did You Know -- Over 100,000 people take part in Knockout Roadshow during a season.

Teams registration takes place one hour before the event starts.Teams are then lined up outside the arena and introduced one by one into the arena with our 3m tall costumes.They are all given a health and safety talk and a demonstration lined up in front of the stage.The crew are introduced all dressed as characters and the fun begins. Then after every inflatable there is a game where points are awarded. It's then back to stage for the cabaret and more stage games for bonus points. We repeat this throughout the games If we have 18/24 teams they will be divided into groups of 6 and a compere will take them around the course. We all then meet back at the stage, this keeps everyone busy throughout the games instead of people standing around doing nothing and bored. At all times a running commentary between the referee, compere and the studio, it's none stop action. Registation Teams enter the arenaHealth and safety talk and demonstration Introduce the crew Stage Game Inflatable One + GameStage Cabaret Inflatable Two + GameStage Cabaret + Stage Game Inflatable Three + GameStage Cabaret + Game Inflatable Four + Game Stage Cabaret Inflatable Five + Game Stage Cabaret Inflatable Six and Seven Eight and Nine Semi Final - Final That's 17 games and 5 or 6 Cabaret acts and 4 Stage Games. Phew! Some companies and charities like a "after knockout party" where a hog roast is served and plenty of beer in buckets full of ice, knockout roadshow can even do an after party or leave the cool blends of music playing. What happens? Knockout roadshow arrive at the venue the day before the event. If possible we will then set up and provide our own security. On the day of the event registration will take place one hour before the start of the show where team captains will hand in their registration packs. Then Let the show begin. Some venues cannot accommadate our Large H.G.V's which are 11m-40cm Long - 3m-60cm High and 2m-50cm width. We also have smaller lorries 7.5 ton which are more appealing for some organisers. Our larger unit is ideal for festivals and corporate events. We do not take the lorries onto area's like football pitches they would ruin the pitch, they are situated on the sidelines and used as a backdrop/stage, Or they can be placed on hardstanding next to the site. Also no mechanical vehicles are used, all equipment is handballed on our trolleys to minimize damage to the ground. The only evidence we have been there are holes 15mm from the pegs that hold the inflatables down. This keeps all groundsmen very happy. You can expect all our crew
members to be polite, helpfull and professional at all times . They are
trainedin every aspect of the show. Ensuring the event is entertaining
whilst taking care of contestants safety and getting the audience
involved. Our arena set up is also unique. We like to get the audience as close to the games and staging area as possible. This adds more flavour and atmosphereto the show and everybody gets to join in the entertainment, so nobody is left out. We also have a 9m
long Winnibago Itasca whichorganisers and special guests can use as a
greenroom. This is ideal for toilets, office and endless cups of tea and
snacks. Cabaret unit only . |

More
teams more money . Sponsorship is also the key . You need to get teams
to raise at least £500 each , that's 10 people in a team getting 25
sponsors at £2 each . Do not cap it at £500 let the teams raise as much
as possible and maybe a prize could be given whoever raises the most .
Companies like banks, supermarkets , football and rugby teams,
hairdressers, they all love to take part. If they cannot take part how
about asking them to sponsor one of the games send a list out, like a
wedding list , somebody may even sponsor the whole event . Some
companies double what their staff have raised and are very keen to do a
team building day, some even have a budget for it. With all our units did you know we can cater up to 100 teams a day , that's around 1200 contestants . Organisers
can download all the rules , regulations and disclaimers direct from
the front page of our website www.itsaknockout.com. This is password
protected and once you have made your booking you can access all the
information.Or you could ask the captains of each team to download them
and get the whole team to sign them and bring them along on the day,
this will save a lot of time on the day of the event for
registration.Teams like to customize their downloaded entry forms it's
a lot of fun and gets everybody involved.Organisers should also take a
deposit from every team . Organisers should also take a deposit from every team. You could also raise extra funds by selling banner space around the arena. With all our units did you know we can cater up to 100teams a day , that's around 1200 contestants. |

must provide an arena that is a flat, cut grassy area ideally 70yds x
50yds but we can be flexible, which is for our sole

trees or very steep hills for our two 17 ton lorries (around the size
of a bus, Cabaret Unit Only ) and 7.5 ton lorries are used for the wet
