When Manchester City FC Academy moved out of their Platt Lane Training Ground facility and into the Etihad Campus in 2013- Manchester Metropolitan University took over the facility and created a new Elite Strength and Conditioning facility for the University’s Performance athletes.
Overview
Perform Better had supplied the original equipment to the Football Club, and were selected by MMU to add more equipment and flooring into the space.
In 2023 the University decided the space was too small and made the decision to increase the size of the facility by knocking down the wall between the adjoining lab area. PB were again selected to equip the new facility and worked closely with the University Performance team to design the larger space.
New Performance flooring and turf track were installed along with branded lifting platforms complemented with a range of Elite Power and Half Racks with Smith and ISO Testing integration.
