Turf games began in 2017 after a group of London-based fitness enthusiasts came together to lessen the solitude of working out alone. The group recognised the power of team sport and training together and after a series of smaller team events, demand grew, and a gap in the market was evident. Turf Games incorporates competitive, functional fitness with a social aspect and party once the games have ceased. Since its inception, the games have travelled globally to form festivals, city series and training days.
