May 2008 - Everybody Interactive Showcase

Shavington Leisure Centre played host to a free showcase of new interactive fitness equipment to members of the public, community groups, schools and potential funding partners on Thursday 15th May. The new interactive fitness suite is just one part of a number of plans to develop the leisure facility at Shavington to extend community use, especially for young people and the elderly.

School and community groups from all over the Borough attended on the day to view and try out the new interactive fitness solutions from ZigZag including the Sport Wall, Machine Dance (dance mats), Makoto and Cybex Trazer (motion tracking) systems as well as showing plans for some exciting potential developments at the centre.

The Mayor of Crewe & Nantwich, Cllr. Brian Silvester, took the opportunity to visit the showcase while it was being enjoyed by members of Shavington High School. After his visit he said, “It would be fantastic to see this project at Shavington Leisure Centre come to fruition and being adopted across the Borough. Having seen the potential of the proposed development, it is clear that it will provide many opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to undertake regular, fun and sociable exercise.”
