Instructors show you grip and stance first, then you turn it into a friendly contest once the throw feels safe. You do not need any previous experience, and a pair can come without filling a whole combat squad. 📋 Key Details Minimum Age: 16+ Duration: 1 hour Group Size: 2 to 50 players Venue: Indoor lanes in Portadown 🎯 What to Expect Nobody starts on the contest. You learn grip, stance, and a safe release first, then practise on the target until the marshal is happy the axe is not bouncing back toward the lane. Most people are hitting the board within a few minutes, even if they have never thrown before. Closed-toe shoes stay on for the whole session, and instructors stay on the lane from the first throw. The rest of the hour is a scored contest against your group. You take turns, keep a running total, and work up to tomahawks and throwing knives once the marshals are happy with your technique. If you would rather stay on axes for the whole contest, say so at the briefing. The last rounds finish on the same lanes you started on, then the axes go back and you can linger in the lobby if you want. 📍 Location The lanes live at 10 Bleary Road, Portadown, BT63 5NE, inside a historic mill building. The session stays fully indoors, so weather outside does not decide whether you throw, and you never have to stand in the rain between rounds. Portadown is about 25 minutes from Belfast via the M1, with a short hop from the local train station and both city airports. Follow the signs for the indoor combat centre once you reach Bleary Road, then come in for check-in. Give yourself a few extra minutes at the weekend so you are ready for the coaching burst rather than walking in late. ✅ Prerequisites You need to be 16 or over, able to stand and throw, and happy to follow marshal instructions. No previous axe throwing experience is required. The first part of the hour is coaching, so you learn the release before anyone starts keeping score. Groups need 2 to 50 players, so a pair can come without filling a six-person combat squad. Closed-toe shoes are required for the whole hour. If someone in the group is under 16, they will need a different activity. Larger groups are welcome on the same session. 🏔️ Why Choose Us Pairs and work groups fit this session well, because the minimum is two people rather than a full combat squad. Instructors stay on the lane from the first throw, which i… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Coach-led briefing and throwing tuition Tomahawks and throwing knives as you progress One hour on the indoor lanes Access to the lobby before and after ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point Food and drinks bought in the lobby Personal insurance ### Kit list Closed-toe shoes Comfortable clothes you can throw in A bottle of water ## FAQs ### What is included? The session includes a coach-led briefing, time on the indoor lanes, and the axes and throwing knives you use as you progress. You do not need to bring your own blades. Food and drinks in the lobby are extra. Transport to and from the meeting point is not included. ### What is the minimum age? Players need to be 16 or over and wearing closed-toe shoes for the whole hour. Marshals will not start a throw if someone is in open shoes or under the age limit. No previous axe throwing experience is needed. The first part of the session is coaching, so you learn the release before anyone starts keeping score. ### Is there a minimum group size? Yes. Groups need at least 2 players, so a pair can come without filling a six-person combat squad. That is why this activity works for smaller groups as well as larger ones. Larger groups are welcome on the same session. Let us know your numbers so we can hold enough lane time. ### Do I need any experience? No. Most people have never thrown an axe before. The first part of the hour is coaching, not a contest, so you learn the release before anyone starts keeping score. Marshals stay on the lane and will stop a throw that looks unsafe. You only move on to other blades when they are happy with the basics. ### Does the session run in the rain? Yes. The lanes are fully indoors, so rain, wind, or a dark evening does not stop the hour. You stay under cover from check-in through the last throw. Wear closed-toe shoes and clothes you can move in. A spare layer is useful if the building feels cool when you arrive. ### Where do we meet? Meet at 10 Bleary Road, Portadown, BT63 5NE. The lanes are inside the mill building on that road, and marshals will point you to check-in when you arrive. It is about 25 minutes from Belfast via the M1. Allow extra time at the weekend so you are ready for the briefing rather than walking in late. ### Is this suitable for a pair? Yes. The minimum group is two people, and the hour is built around coaching plus a friendly contest rather than a full combat squad. You stay on the same lanes for the whole session. If you want to stay on after the last throw, coffee, hot food, and snacks are on sale in the lobby. ### What should we wear? Closed-toe shoes are required for the whole hour. Wear comfortable clothes you can throw in. We provide the axes and any lane kit you need. Bring a bottle of water. You can pick up drinks in the lobby if you want something else during a break between rounds. ### Will I use knives as well as axes? Tomahawks come first. Marshals only move you on to throwing knives once your basic throw is consistent and safe. You do not start the hour on knives. If you prefer to stay on axes for the whole contest, say so at the briefing. The scored rounds still work with a single blade type. ### Is food available on site? Yes. The lobby has coffee, hot food, and snacks. Those are extra and chosen on the day if you want them. Bring a bottle of water as well so you can drink between rounds. You can pick up more in the lobby if you run out. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Untitled-design-2026-06-05T132833.188-1-1.png - **Gallery image count**: 4 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
