FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I need to sign a waiver?
Yes, all Archery Games and Nerf Wars participants must sign our waiver before entering the arena. It's a quick form that you can either sign ahead of time on your phone or computer, or on our tablets when you arrive.
For a faster check in, we encourage all players to sign ahead of time.
What is included in a Nerf Party?
Each 75 minute session includes all required training and then it's into the arena for battle!
Your group will then play a number of different game modes as they team up and take each other on.
Then, if you have reserved a party table for after, your group will get 45 minutes at one of the tables in our lobby. You can bring your own food, drinks and cake to enjoy here after the game.

On busy days, we will have to limit the table use to 45 minutes sharp, to make sure that everyone gets fair use of the space. Maximum 20 people per party table.
We also politely ask for no more than 10 spectators per group, to help us manage the space in our lobby.
What is the schedule for a Nerf Party?
Arrive 5 to 10 minutes before your booking start time.
Training and instructions for 15 minutes
Play for 55 minutes
Final scores & conclusion for 5 minutes
Party table for 45 minutes (Optional)
Do you provide utensils, plates and place settings?
You will need to bring any items that are required for eating and drinking at your party table.
What ages are suitable for Nerf Wars?
Our guideline ages are:
Nerf Elite: Ages 5 - 9
Nerf Rival: Ages 9+
Combat Archery: Ages 10 +
We reccommend Nerf to younger kids, as ages 10 and up can swap over to the archery, which is a more engaging game.
If your players would still prefer Nerf, that's fine too! It's open to everyone.
Will my group have a private experience?
Yes! Your group will enjoy the entire arena to yourselves, along with a private training session and dedicated referee for your group only. Other customers may be in the facility during your party and the party table is in our shared lobby area, not a private room.
What type of Nerf blasters are available?
We offer the Nerf Elite series, N Series and the Nerf Rival series of blasters.
The Elite series is for our younger players aged 5 - 6 as it's easier to load the guns.
The N Series steps it up for ages 7-9.
Older players (10+) will use the Rival series for a more action packed game!
Our staff will help you choose on the day if you're not sure what's right for your group.
What should I wear?
A pair of clean athletic indoor shoes is required to enter the arena. We suggest wearing athletic clothing such as t-shirt and shorts. We also recommend removing all jewelry prior to game play.
For players who wear glasses, we have specially-cut masks for you, but we recommend wearing contacts if you can.
Do you provide food & drinks? Can I bring my own?
For ages 19+, you can visit Playback, our in hour games bar after your game for alcoholic & alcohol-free drinks. You can also take your own food into Playback to enjoy at your table.
In the Archery Games lobby, we have a small selection of light refreshments:
Beer, Wine, Cider & Seltzer.
Cans of pop
Bottled water & juice
Energy Drinks & Gatorade
Candy & Chocolate
For all other food & drink needs, you are welcome to bring your own and enjoy them at the tables in our lobby.

Please be aware that on busier days, all of our tables may be booked by private event groups. If you would like to reserve a table for free, please contact us.
If the number of participants in my group changes after booking, do I need to inform Archery Games?
As long as you have 12 or more participants, you do not need to update us about any changes. Simply arrive on the day and pay for the number of players that attend.
If you expect less than the minimum of 12 players, please contact us to see if we can still run the game for your group. There is a minimum charge of 12 players for all Nerf events, even if you arrive with less.
Can participants bring their own Nerf guns from home?
Yes, however they must be genuine Nerf brand guns that use the style of ammunition in the game. Ages 5-6 will play with the Elite Darts, 7-9 will play with the N-Series Darts and ages 10+ will play with the Rival Ball ammo.
We have plenty of ammunition for everyone, so please do not bring your own as it will not be possible to recover your darts after the game.
We reserve the right to remove any outside guns from play if they are deemed to be dangerous or causing a problem in the game.
What if I'm late for my session?
All players should arrive at least 15 minutes prior to their reserved game time.
In the instance where safety training is missed, we may decide at our discretion whether any late arrivals may participate in game play. Please contact us and let us know if you or your group will be late and we will do our best to accommodate. However, arriving late will likely result in less game play time and a limited experience.
Can I use a combination of blasters?
We can only use one type of blaster (Elite / N-Series / Rival) for your entire game, as they use different kinds of ammunition.
Our staff will help you choose the right type of blasters for your group on the day.
Does an adult need to supervise the game?
While we do have an Archery Games referee inside the arena for all Nerf Wars games, we do suggest one or two adults from the party also join in to assist some of the children that need help.
This is not a requirement, but it will improve the experience for everyone involved as the referree won't need to stop the game if there is an issue with one of the players.
Do the Nerf darts hurt?
We use the Nerf dart style ammunition as it has been designed for the 6+ age range, and doesn't hit hard enough to cause any pain.
All participants are also provided with a full head helmet and mask, so there is no risk of injury to the eyes or face.
What is the cancellation policy?
