about us >> Our mission
We are the major player in indoor sports stadiums in Australia, New Zealand, Africa and Japan, and are committed to being the leading recreational entertainment group in the UK and Europe, creating:
- Multi-sport facilities to international specifications
- Quality experiences that help change lifestyles for the better
- Affordable programmes that promote spectator and player participation
- A less intense, more fun way of getting regular exercise
- Appeal for the entire community from 7-70 years old, singles, couples and families
- Healthy, fun and inclusive activities that contribute to the regeneration of urban areas.
We offer Centre of Excellence Coaching through our partnership with Sport England, and have secured:
- the services of Leigh Iles, a well known Somerset professional cricketer, successful cricket coach, and the Captain of the Brislington Cricket Club
- the services of Julie Talbot, a Level 2 coach accredited to England Netball to run the Action Netball coaching initiative. Julie has successfully managed the first Action Netball Trials and selected three squads to represent England in the W.I.N.A. 2007 Indoor Netball Tri-nations against Australia & South Africa from 28th November - 8th December.
Regeneration
The Action Indoor Sports model is based on regenerating existing buildings that are no longer fit for their original purpose.
Our arenas will not normally be found in purpose built facilities - our vision is to build a completely sustainable proposition - seeking out existing premises, often in areas that need new community facilities and recreating a building that brings new life to an area, in an environmentally responsible way. We have an ambitious goal!
We want to inspire a new generation of people to enjoy keeping fit without really trying!
We want to encourage families, friends, seniors, students, colleagues to play Action Indoor Sports, compete and win - whatever the level!
We hope that this new facility will also nurture talented young individuals who might be training for the 2012 Olympics.
Sports England has assisted Action Indoor Sports Stadiums Limited in setting up The Action Indoor Sports Foundation, whose goal is specifically to:
- provide a regular flow of funds into sports in the UK at grass roots level
- helping to benefit communities, and individuals
- enhance the talents of gifted sportsmen and sportswomen by providing top level facilities and professional coaching to help individuals and teams to achieve their goals!
