The Duo Football program offers a double challenge that guarantees a fun and exciting experience for all participants. It's called "duo" not only because it can be played by two people, but also because it combines two different game modes. In the first part, players sit down and play foot football. Participants defend small goals while trying to score as many goals as possible with their feet. This challenge tests not only skill and speed but also tactical thinking, as movement is limited.
Thanks to our professional racing simulators, you can enjoy a unique experience. Test your driving skills on the same equipment used by professional racing drivers during training. The simulators realistically replicate track conditions, including precise cornering, acceleration and braking. Put your skills and reflexes to the test on various race tracks and receive real-time feedback on your performance.

You can kick or throw the balls to test multiple skills at once. The aim is to hit the designated areas of the board as accurately as possible, just like in a real game of darts. Foot Darts guarantees a fun and challenging experience for all ages. Try it out and compete with your friends in this unique new sport, where success is guaranteed!
In this exciting activity, players can show off their juggling skills and test their shooting accuracy. Participants challenge themselves to keep the ball in the air for as long as possible without dropping it, all while aiming at different targets to demonstrate precision. This program is not only fun, but it also helps improve ball control and concentration skills. The Football Cage is the perfect choice for those looking to test their abilities and compete with friends in a dynamic setting."
Can you juggle the ball 10 times? Score a goal? Then it’s time to play FC25! Are you good at shooting hoops? Then you’ve earned a round of NBA. Handy with a hockey stick? Then you’ll be just as good at NHL. The goal of this station is to get everyone moving before sitting down at the console and to experience the same sport in both physical and digital forms.
Gather your team and test your skills in our unique NERF arena! Aim, shoot, and, of course, dodge so you don't get hit!
