Strong Demand Proven: Craig Tara Haven Strikr9®

Strikr9 Footpool ready for player to take first shot at Craig Tara Haven

The Opportunity

Craig Tara Haven, a holiday park operator in Scotland, was looking to maximise available leisure space without stretching operational capacity. The park needed an activity that would succeed with families and groups alike—one that could deliver strong guest engagement without adding staffing overhead.

Why Strikr9® Worked

Strikr9® proved to be a strong fit due to its simplicity, visibility and ability to engage groups quickly with minimal setup:

• High visibility location draws walk-on play
• Broad, accessible gameplay suited to families and groups
• Durable, well-built design suited to busy commercial environments
• Quick, low-disruption installation eliminating barrier-to-operation


Operator Feedback

Since installation, the activity has generated strong, sustained demand and repeat bookings. Observation from Craig Tara Haven’s Activities and Leisure team highlights the immediate appeal to groups:

“The installation was simple and quick. Build quality is great—sturdy materials and a nice, simple, effective design. We selected the perfect location and guests notice it straight away. We run sessions every 30 minutes and during peak times we’re fully sold out. Managing it day-to-day is very simple; we do a quick setup and brief, and it’s worked really well. I’ve already asked for a second one.”

— Megan, Activities and Pool Team Manager



Guest Experience and Demand

The activity has quickly become popular among Craig Tara Haven guests. Groups book it together, and the straightforward nature of the game means siblings, friends, and mixed-age players all enjoy it without complex instruction or lengthy setup. The park reports strong demand from the moment installation was complete, signalling both commercial viability and genuine guest appeal.

Why This Model Succeeded

Operational simplicity. Parents and groups manage play themselves.
Immediate demand. Strong bookings and repeat play from day one.
Scalable appeal. Works equally well for families, groups, and mixed-age players.
Clear ROI pathway. The team now have an additional table to maximise profit.


Looking Ahead

With strong early performance and sustained guest demand, Strikr9® has quickly become a valuable addition to Craig Tara Haven’s activity mix. The addition of a second table—now live on-site—reflects the venue’s confidence in the Footpool activity and signals strong guest engagement and commercial viability. With two units now operational, Craig Tara Haven continues to see sustained demand and positive guest feedback.
