OUR JOURNEY
WHO ARE WE?
STRIKE FORCE LASER TAG is a mobile Laser Tag business in the northern suburbs of Adelaide. We are based in Evanston Park and specialise in birthdays, corporate events, celebrations and School or OSHC incursions.
We wanted a mobile business because it allows us to meet so many great people and it removes a barrier for people by bringing the experience directly to you.
WHAT’s Our Story?
A Passion for Laser Tag
As a teenager, a group of us would meet once a week to play Laser Tag. It was through this I discovered how much fun it was and how active it could be. This formed the drive to one day get into the industry.
Off the Shelf Game Kits
Wandering through a store one day an exciting new Laser Tag offering caught my eye, Recoil.
Recoil Goes Under
I continued to keep an eye on the Laser Tag Market. It led me to Facebook where I found an article confirming the Recoil company had been sold. By this stage I had accumulated 16 recoil sets and now an uncertain future for them.
Best Equipment in the Market
Fearing the worst, I began researching commercial grade equipment companies and found Delta Strike, Lasermaxx, Battle Company, Laserwar, Laser Force, Zone Laser Tag and Battlefield Sports all sold commercial equipment.
Opportunity to Buy Established Centre
A local Laser Tag centre was selling up and I enquired to see if it was feasible for me. Ultimately it was not to be but still the desire was burning.
Battle Company
Continuing to research the market, Battle Company was identified to have the best equipment around for a mobile business. They used more realism for their taggers and had a headband that allowed for 360 degree shots.
A Different Direction
COVID19 hit and people were unable to leave home and entertainment felt like a life-time ago. I made the decision to sell off the Recoil equipment I had and put my mind toward new goals.
I Can’t Stop Looking
Even though the effects of COVID19 were still being felt across the globe, I could not stop my mind from drifting into Laser Tag. I began researching the market again and this time discovered Lasertag.net.
RISKY SITUATION
I left my stable employment with nothing to go to. Completely against what I was taught growing up. Whilst I did not know what was next I knew I would be fine.
STRIKE FORCE LASER TAG is Born
I had the business name picked for about 5 years and knew it was going to be mobile. I completed a market review and determined Lasertag.net and Battle Company were the top two equipment in the market.
Business Opportunity
A local Laser Tag centre was closing down and selling off the equipment. It was a centre I had played at previously and they used the Battle Company equipment. After a tense week, I was successful in purchasing the equipment.
Business Launch
We officially launched at the Viking Market in Gawler and had a number of groups throughout the day. Feedback was that every player had a great amount of fun and found the experience to be different to other Laser Tag and great for all ages.

STRIKE FORCE LASER TAG is Born
I had the business name picked for about 5 years and knew it was going to be mobile. I spent every waking moment for weeks going through business plans and forecasting financials to prove it would be a profitable endeavour.
I had completed a final market review and determined Lasertag.net and Battle Company were the top two equipment in the market. Further scrutiny had Lasertag.net ahead and so they became provider of choice.
