September can be a bit of a downer. Suddenly the carefree chaos of summer is swapped for timetables and homework. But here’s the good news: back-to-school doesn’t have to mean back-to-boring. A weekend at Teamworks Karting – in particular, one with laser guns and battle armour – is the ultimate way to blast away those blues and kickstart the school year with a bang. 

Or, you know, a pew pew pew.

Set the Tone

Back-to-school parties are quickly becoming the secret weapon for parents who want to make September feel special. Think of it as a “last hurrah” for summer – a way to turn the post-holiday slump into something your child will be buzzing about all term. 

The first weeks of school set the mood for the whole year. Give your child the confidence boost of an unforgettable hangout with friends, and watch them walk into the classroom with their chin resolutely up.

Fire Up the Fun

Back to school means new classmates, new social groups, and new anxieties. Laser tag wipes all of that away in minutes. From the moment the vests go on, the neon lights go up, the music starts, and the arena opens up into ramps, sniper holes and hidden corners, kids who’ve been nervous about starting a new year and making new friends suddenly become fearless team leaders, sneaky snipers, or heroic defenders. Our lasertag arena levels the playing field instantly: no experience needed, no special skills required: just point and zap!

Nothing builds a bond faster than ducking behind cover together or shouting out strategies mid-battle. Before long, the squad will be high-fiving and laughing over dramatic dodges. It’s the perfect way to turn ‘I don’t know anyone’ into ‘this is my team’.

And why stop at laser tag? Across the UK, Teamworks venues offer so much more. Take the excitement to the track with high-octane indoor go karting, and feel the adrenaline as you race wheel-to-wheel on professionally designed circuits, perfect for competitive spirits who want bragging rights. 

Or if your speed demons are obsessed with gaming, our state-of-the-art racing simulators let them step into the driver’s seat of a virtual race car – complete with force-feedback steering wheels, pedals, and huge screens. It’s the closest you’ll get to the real thing without a Formula One contract.

Here for Parents

Let’s be real: hosting can be a hassle. Activities that fizzle out after five minutes, food and drinks (with a booklet of dietary requirements), and a mess that somehow takes days to clean up. At Teamworks, all of that stress vanishes. Our arenas are built to thrill, our games keep the energy up, and our party packages mean you don’t have to lift a finger. Add food and drink from our on-site kitchen to the mix, and suddenly you’ve got a fun day out that’s as easy for parents as it is exciting for kids.

So, forget the back-to-school blues – let’s light them up with lasers. 🏎️🏁
