Our Visit to the Olympic Village

Both myself (Michelle) and Andy the other Co-Founder of Home Leisure Direct we're invited to the Stratford Olympic Village for it's grand opening before the London 2012 Olympic Games. As chosen Games Room supplier to the games we were ecstatic to learn that the comity had invited us to this prestigious event to see our pool tables in action.

We couldn't have asked for a better reception, our pool tables were in The Globe which was by far the most popular area in the entire village. There we're hundreds of the worlds press being shown round and our pool tables we're at the epicenter of the action and went down extremely well with all the guests which is why you may have already seen them in national newspapers and on websites including The Daily Mail and BBC News.

What the Olympic comity have created at the village is utterly fantastic and we feel so lucky to have been chosen to play a part and work alongside the London 2012 games. The whole area is a modern, fun area for the athletes to kick back and relax. It will be exciting to see what happens to the site after and hopefully the local community can benefit from the money spent.
