Always fancied your chances taking a penalty against one of the world’s best goalkeepers? Well now you can. And you don’t have to be a professional footballer.

KICKair, the new indoor freestyle park kickair near Manchester Arena, holds the only license in the UK for RoboKeeper – goal-keeping technology that not even Lionel Messi could beat.

You’ll find RoboKeeper in Kick Zone, one of three separate areas in the biggest indoor playground for adults and kids in the north west.

RoboKeeper can move 17 times faster than a Formula 1 racing car. That’s even quicker than de Gea.

The structure holds two cameras in the truss stands above the goal which take up to 90 pictures per second in order to calculate the ball’s likely destination.

To give you a chance of scoring, the system can be adjusted to one of seven levels of difficulty.

If you really fancy yourself as the next Ronaldo or Messi, show off your skills trying to hit the bullseye with foot darts, or perfect your shot in foot pool.

Or why not test your strength in the Air Zone where you’ll find trampolines, airbags, a bouldering wall plus augmented and cardio climbing walls. The air action doesn’t stop there. There are  dodgeball areas, battle beams and a roll log, total wipe out courses, basketball slamdunks, slacklines and more.

If you’re feeling really adventurous you can leap on the performance trampolines or try  the adults or children’s Ninja Course.

In Little Kicks, a multi-tiered soft play area for children aged 0-9 years, you can let the kids run wild in a safe, secure and stimulating play environment. This is the place to see them enjoy a thrilling yet safe introduction to high climbing with ropes plus harness and braking system.

As well as buying tickets for zones, you can purchase crossover sessions to take advantage of the entire indoor park.

KICKair is the perfect place for kids to have a great time – and grown-ups too!
