The Destination
Why Lonavala works
for a sports offsite.
Lonavala is India's most accessible hill station getaway — 2 hours from Mumbai, 1 hour from Pune, and cool enough year-round for outdoor sport. No flights required. No 3-hour check-in queues. Your team arrives fresh and leaves energised.
The resort infrastructure is mature — dozens of properties with outdoor grounds, lawns, and space for sports. FORJ brings the structure: the tournament format, the jerseys, the scoring platform, the officials. You get the venue. We get the rest.

FAQ
Lonavala offsite — answered.
What sports can we run in Lonavala for a corporate offsite?
FORJ runs Table Tennis (in resort indoor space), Pickleball and Badminton (resort lawns or outdoor courts), and Cricket + Football (resort grounds or local turf). The exact sport mix depends on the resort's facilities. Most Lonavala resorts have adequate outdoor space for 3–4 sports across a 2-day format.
What is the ideal group size for a Lonavala sports offsite?
20–60 people. Lonavala is ideal for senior leadership groups, core team cohorts, or department-level retreats rather than all-company events. The intimacy of Lonavala — smaller resorts, tighter spaces — suits a smaller, higher-engagement format.
How is a Lonavala sports offsite different from a Goa offsite?
Goa has dedicated multi-sport facilities (CoPlay Assagao for pickleball and padel, Agnel Futsal Arena for cricket and football) that Lonavala doesn't have. Lonavala runs a slightly simpler sport mix, typically 3–4 sports vs Goa's 5. But Lonavala is significantly more accessible from Mumbai and Pune — no flights, no hotel blocks required — making it a more efficient format for tighter timelines and budgets.
What does a Lonavala corporate sports offsite cost?
Broadly ₹25,000–₹60,000 per head for a FORJ 2-day Lonavala sports offsite, excluding accommodation at the resort. This covers venue sports costs, equipment, officials, custom jerseys, live scoring platform, medals, and FORJ production. Full itemised proposal in 24 hours.
