Better for broad participation
Stations let you vary demand, pace, roles, and scoring across a larger crowd.
Activity comparison
Telematch Vs Dodgeball
Telematch is stronger when the group is larger, more mixed, or needs station-based participation. Dodgeball is stronger when the team wants a familiar active game and direct court competition is acceptable.

Weighted Fit Selector
Choose group size, energy, and venue plan. The recommendation balances station flow against direct court-game energy.
Decision framework
Choose a scalable system or a direct game
Telematch is a planning system. Dodgeball is a focused game. The right answer depends on how much range the crowd needs.
Better for direct active play
A familiar game can be efficient when the group is game-ready and the court setup is clean.
Do not make one court carry everyone
For large mixed groups, a single direct game can create waiting, exclusion, or comfort risk.
Side by side
Telematch and Dodgeball side by side
Use this table when your approvers are deciding between station rotations and one familiar court game.
| Decision point | Telematch | Dodgeball |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Large, mixed, or cross-department groups needing varied stations. | Game-ready teams wanting fast and familiar competition. |
| Group-size fit | Stronger from 60 people upward and scalable for very large groups. | Stronger for smaller court groups or as one station. |
| Inclusion floor | Higher because stations can vary physical demand. | Lower if direct targeting or elimination makes some people cautious. |
| Operational question | How many stations and facilitators keep teams moving? | How do eliminated players stay included? |

FAQ
Common planning questions
When should this page move into the Event Planner?
Use the Event Planner once you know approximate headcount, date range, venue direction, and the decision that is still open. The planner preserves this page context so Cohesion can respond with a sharper recommendation.
Should I choose an activity before confirming the venue?
For simple office groups, a shortlist can come first. For larger, weather-sensitive, or multi-zone events, venue fit and activity fit should move together.
Is this page replacing the activity pages?
No. This page helps you decide the direction. The activity pages still explain the actual format, game modes, setup, and request path.
