Pictures unveiled of family games brand set for Coventry
The owner of Roxy Lanes and Roxy Ball Room is set to launch its first Star Pins venue in Coventry this December.
The 32,000 sq ft venue in West Orchards Shopping Centre marks Professionals at Play’s first venture into the city. It will offer a mix of family-friendly games including ten-pin bowling, mini golf, darts, shuffleboard, ice-free curling, American pool, shooting and ping pong.
Professionals at Play, previously known as Roxy Leisure Holdings, was founded by Matthew Jones and Ben Jones, with the opening of their first Roxy Ball Room site on Leeds’ Boar Lane in 2013. It has since grown to operate 21 sites in 12 cities from Edinburgh to Bristol, 11 years after launching its first venue in Leeds.
More sites are planned for Bristol, Glasgow, Belfast, Leeds and London in the next year.
Star Pins Coventry is the sister brand to King Pins, which recently launched two venues in Manchester, with another venue in the pipeline to launch in Bristol.
James Travis, brand manager at King Pins said, “As the UK City of Culture in 2021, Coventry is rife with creativity and opportunities, so we couldn’t think of a better city to launch our new brand, Star Pins.
“The venue will mark our first venture in the city and we’re looking forward to welcoming the people of Coventry through our doors and providing them with accessible, premium game experiences, from our gold standard ten-pin bowling to mini golf and ice-free curling”.
