Absolutely, always pray before and after practice this will develop relationships and draw each one close to the other. Make sure each person gets a chance to pray. Start in a circle, when one person finishes the next person has a chance unless they choose not to in which case they will squeeze the person on their right hand. Prayers will continue around the circle until it comes back to the leader to close in prayer.

There are a few things I did in a creativity class that may help. Maybe give small groups a hunk of clay and have them sculpt something without talking for 20 minutes. It really shows how important and how much impact non-verbal communication has. A few weeks ago my boss held a "marshmellow" meeting. She had written all the issues that she had heard over the past few weeks she had heard from all of us and said anything we said would stay in that room. If we wanted to cuss we could. We just couldn't be mean or scream at each other but if we disagreed with something that somebody said we could throw marshmellows. Let me tell you...those marshmellows went flying! Not everything got ironed out but it was a start. Also there is that trust building exercise where one person will lean back and the whole group is responsible for catching them and not letting them fall. Talk about an exercise in trust.

Campfires are great for musically inclined teams. Bring a friend to share the fun and let them see how much fun groups like yours can be. Use the music and the atmosphere and some marshmallows or weiners. Outdoors is a great place to show the handiwork of God. Plant a garden with a child and whistle while you work. Do what is fun and enjoy yourself. The price for the fun is a package of seeds for a place in this garden of fellowship and community. Instead of making YOUR church the most beautiful, choose one that needs it more and offer your services. Is it really so hard to preactice we Jesus preached?You have the gift of music. If I had it, I'd be overflowing with joyful noises. People love the music even if they hate the sermon.

I would suggest do a relay kind of event like in a swimming pool. Catch people one by one by everyone in the team.
You can also do something like if there is a deep area in the pool you can let them gather some stuff from the bottom and the one who is scared in swimming has to have someone swim again and compensate for the lack and get doubly tired in search of it. That is just in the water. The next one might be something simple. Like having a tug-o-war. Communication is vital in here. Also you can have a coin in a flour thing... but they use their face. Or maybe an egg race. Either way it is a team effort and not individual. ;-)

you can google "ice breaker activities".. these are usually the type of things that take a small amount of working together to build a small level of trust and are used for trainings.. but for a true team-building it takes more than a few simple activities.. I'd suggest a Ropes Course or something like that.. they have full day sessions that would do them worlds of good.

Go white water rafting! Take a trip somewhere and do something that requires working together to achieve something. You'll make memories and learn to depend and trust one another.

Take one of the obstacle courses if there is one in your area.
