KAPOW Wrestling Workshop
You enter the ring; the world championship belt sparkling in your hand as the crowd chant your name... Whether you've been dreaming of it for years or it's your first time in the square circle, the KAPOW Wrestling Federation are back in Baldersby Park to run their famous workshops!
Real-life wrestlers will be on hand teach you how to safely perform some iconic moves, from old-school physical feats like the hip toss and hammer throw and showcase some contemporary technical moves like the gorilla press gutbuster or the inverted death valley driver. Ouch!
Nerf Gun Arena
You hold your breath and steady your aim, lining up the target in your sights…
You squeeze the trigger and, in the blink of an eye, one of those little, orange foam darts has pinged off your dad's head, much to the amusement of everyone watching.
It really doesn't get much better, does it? Foam warfare at its finest, we couldn’t be more excited to have none other than Team Nerf here at Deer Shed to show us how it’s done. Full of obstacles and hiding spots, our Nerf Arena is where heroes are made and husbands are humiliated.
Kayaking
Perhaps the most exciting aquatic addition to Deer Shed for quite some time and arguably one of the most popular, of course Kayaking is back for Deer Shed 13!
You lot made such a splash out at Baldersby Park last year there would have been uproar if we hadn't invited the team back. Brought to us by C2C Outdoors, if you're looking for a romantic gondola - this isn't it!
The games and activities we've got planned are the perfect way to learn the basics of kayaking before putting your skills to the test in a race against your mates.

Skateboard & BMX
Been practicing your bar spins? Landed your first 900?
Whether you’re a pro or fresh on the scene, we present the perfect opportunity for you to work on your gnarly moves.
By the time you’re done, you’ll be bunnyhopping around the festival and kick flipping with the best of them. Radical!
Quidditch
Are you a fan of spells AND sport? Know as much about Messi as you do about magic?
Well, you're in luck! Quidditch is back in Baldersby Park for Deer Shed 13 and with even more brooms and bludgers this time.
What are you waiting for? Take to the skies, seize the snitch and, most importantly, show those muggles what they're missing.
Disc Golf
We're all about innovation here at Deer Shed HQ and Disc Golf is a shining example. Who would have though that smashing two completely different sports together would result in something so ridiculously fun!?
Take the concept of a golf course, but get rid of all those daft clubs and balls and just chuck a frisbee down it instead; it's absolute genius and we're all for it.
Do It Yourself Sports
A Deer Shed institution, our DIY Sports station covers just about anything you can think of where you won't need one of our expert instructors/referees/judges on hand.
If you fancy a quick five-a-side kickabout or a round or two of rounders, DIY Sports has got your covered. However, we're especially interested in the new games you ever resourceful Shedders invent...
Maybe this is finally the year that Basket-bowls takes the world by storm!
Ball On A String
We've just realised that 'Ball On A String' can be sung to the tune of 'Band On The Run' so that's going to be stuck in our head for the foreseeable future...
Now that we think about it though, is there a better soundtrack for the recoil-based hilarity of kicking a ball that's attached to you via high tensile elastic?
So, strap on your ball, channel your inner Macca and let fly!
DSF Rounders Crew
Nothing says summer time more than a game of rounders in the park, right? Well, we've got you covered!
Our Rounders Crew are on hand all festival; their bases fully loaded with bats, balls and even teammates at the ready. All you need to bring is you!
