Shooting games hire Basingstoke

Basingstoke sits about 38 miles north of the workshop, A3 then M3, and it is a regular run through the season into RG21 to RG24. The corporate work around the business parks at Chineham, Houndmills and Viables keeps the electronic and shooting games in particular busy, and the school fairs across the town take the archery and the arena through the summer.

For the Basingstoke corporate days, the Laser Shot booth is the indoor pick: a projected shooting gallery in a 3m by 4.5m corner of an office or a marquee, one player at a time with rounds of about a minute, so it queues well without tying anyone up. The laser quest arena is the ten-player version that needs the bigger room - 35ft by 35ft with 8ft of headroom indoors, or 40ft by 40ft outside with 25ft of clearance.

Outdoors, the laser clays range runs five shooters over 30m by 10m with no mains power needed, the replica shotguns bang on the trigger and the scoreboard plays the breaking-clay sound on a hit. Archery is the taught session with RPII-examined instructors and a 40ft by 60ft range, and the crossbow challenge is the four-player stall that fits a school fair layout.

Everything is our own kit from Havant, delivered and run by our own first-aid trained, enhanced-DBS registered crews. The booking pack comes with what Basingstoke compliance teams ask for: the £10 million public liability certificate, risk assessments, method statements, and current PAT and PIPA certification.

The shooting games usually run as part of a bigger spread - a rodeo bull or the assault course outside, the arena or the booth in the hall - and the Basingstoke event hire page rounds up the rest of the range.

Send the date, the site and the headcount, and we'll put a package together that fits the space you've actually got, with the paperwork attached before you commit.

Shooting games hire in Basingstoke - common questions

What works best for a corporate day at one of the Basingstoke business parks?

The Laser Shot booth indoors and the laser clays range outdoors is the usual pairing - the booth takes a 3m by 4.5m corner and queues quickly, and the clays range runs 30m by 10m without mains power. Both are staffed by our own operators. Send the site details and we will confirm what fits.

How much space does the laser tag arena need?

About 35ft by 35ft with 8ft of headroom indoors, or a 40ft by 40ft outdoor pitch with 25ft of clearance. It inflates in sections through standard doors. Give us the room or field measurements at enquiry stage and we will confirm the fit before quoting.

Do you provide the paperwork schools and offices ask for?

Yes - the £10 million public liability certificate, risk assessments, method statements and current PAT and PIPA certification go out with the Basingstoke booking pack, before you commit rather than after. Every operator on the day is our own first-aid trained, DBS-checked staff.
