ZigZag launches new Sportwall at LIW
"If people take a good look at the Sportwall they'll see the wave of the
future,” said Billie Jean King, winner of 20 Wimbledon titles. “Players are getting cardiovascular fitness, sports training and they're having fun at the same time! Believe me when I say you've never experienced anything like this before. The Sportwall is truly a blast!”
As with ZigZag’s original Sportwall, where points are scored against the clock by zapping the lights on the panels, and players must simultaneously track a ball, targets, sounds, scores and a time clock, earning extra points for accuracy, skill, speed, cardiovascular stamina and team co-operation, the Performance-PT version is further geared for specific sport training, including tennis, baseball, football, basketball, hockey, volleyball and even la crosse!
Unlike the previous model, the new Performance-PT works across three panels, offering 21 targets, two scoreboards and a time clock. It has 42 remote control-driven single and two player games, as well as a speed game option, and can work as either a single or two station group training machine for up to 18 players. Fergus Ahern, Managing Director of ZigZag said: “The Sportwall Performance-PT takes exer-gaming to an entirely new level. It’s ideal for amateurs to professional athletes as well as for group sessions. The new technology makes practice as exciting as real competition, whether doing cardiovascular training, learning sport specific kills, training for speed and agility or doing core strength training. It sharpens concentration and focus; promotes playing in the zone, and is proven to keep players on top of their game.” Sportwall Performance-PT offers:• Individual sport specific fitness and skills training• Two player scoring for strategy and positioning training• Two team training – the walls can be programmed to train two teams of up to eight players at any one time• Speed games – a radar checks the speed of your play Training on ZigZag’s Sportwall Performance-PT is fun both fun and motivating. But it’s also efficient and helps to develop quick hands and feet, rapid thinking for strategy and technique, greater balance, agility, body awareness and footwork, strength, endurance and flexibility, as well as sharp focus and concentration, anaerobic, aerobic and cardiovascular endurance and accuracy.
