Pedal-powered outdoor games by Sportswise


Sportwise has added a self-powered fitness game to its equipment portfo- lio – combining technology with the opportunity to get fit outdoors. Console-based, the EQ Fitness game is powered by pedal power, so the lon- ger the participant performs a cycling motion – the longer the game. This equipment is available in a variety of designs to suit budget and facility and is ideally suited to holiday parks, open spaces, schools and leisure centres. It is environmentally friendly as no external power is required.


Vredo’s winning pass


Murrayfield Rugby Stadium has acquired a 1.2m Vredo Supa Compact disc overseeder to enable groundstaff to overseed the sports pitch in a single pass. The action of the closely spaced discs, which are only 35mm apart, make a precise cut into the turf where the seed is sown directly into the soil. Three different models are available.
