Corporate Events & Team Building in Albany Just Got More Fun
Let’s be honest.
No one gets excited about another conference room meeting with boxed lunches and awkward icebreakers.
If you're planning a corporate event, team training, or company outing in Albany, it should actually build energy — not drain it.
That’s where The Yard Sports Bar & Hatchet House comes in.
Located at 16 Sheridan Ave in downtown Albany, we offer a high-energy, structured, and memorable alternative to traditional corporate venues.
Why Axe Throwing Works for Team Building
Team bonding isn’t about trust falls.
It’s about shared experiences.
When teams throw axes together, something interesting happens:
• People loosen up
• Natural leaders emerge
• Communication improves
• Friendly competition sparks connection
• Departments that don’t normally interact actually engage
You get collaboration — without forcing it.
And because our sessions are structured and guided, everyone feels included, even first-time throwers.
