A handful of football-inspired games will be available to play with the World Cup beginning in late November.

One of the experiences will be inside the former H&M unit at atria Watford – until around mid-January - while a longer lease has also been signed to move into part of the former Clements store, with an opening date from around January.

The latter will include a café and VR laser tag, with party rooms and a nerf gun arena and a host more activities to be found as well, Sports City organisers say.

“Sports City’s ethos is based around family, fun and fitness.  We want families to spend time and have fun together in a healthy environment where they can find activities to enjoy, whatever their age, sport or skill level.”
