Three-in-a-Row Throwdown

Three-in-a-Row Throwdown is a lively, team-based game that gets your staff moving, talking, and thinking together. Teams race to answer quick prompts and claim squares on a giant tic-tac-toe board, building connection and friendly competition along the way. It’s the perfect energizer for staff meetings, PD days, or any moment when your team needs a boost of fun.

How it Works

Teams earn squares by answering themed question cards from the School Spirit, Wellbeing, or Speed Round sets. The resource includes simple facilitator directions, a tic-tac-toe game board, three printable card decks, and a score tracker for easy setup and smooth gameplay.
