Our Business

Despite being the first in the UK to launch a multimedia coaching resource in 1995 (Animated Skill Drills for Rugby Union Coaching) quickly followed by resources for Football, Hockey and Cricket, the breakthrough for multimedia resources for National Governing Bodies of Sport (NGBS) didn't really occur until 1999 when the ECB commissioned Tacklesport to develop a multimedia resource for the teaching and coaching of cricket in schools; another first, Howzat! was launched in 2000 by Minister for Sport Kate Hoey. Gradually, as technology improved, and available software became more sophisticated and more widely accepted and adopted, confidence in the potential of multimedia resources grew.

By 2000 the 'Digital Age' had started to take off and Tacklesport became the developer of choice for a range of providers. The Animated Sports Coaching series expanded and attracted endorsement from major sports organisations at home and abroad. New resources were added to the Tacklesport product range and a diverse range of organisations from within physical education and sport commissioned resources. Combining design and multimedia production skills with our knowledge and experience of physical education and sports coaching sets Tacklesport apart from other multimedia software production houses. With 16 years experience behind us, we are able to deliver comprehensive digital solutions – powerful, media-rich software with modern, engaging design and user friendly experience – that satisfy the needs of our clients.

Moving into 2010, with advances in internet provision, computer functionality and capacity and an expansion of mobile technologies fuelling a greater need for innovative and effective teaching and coaching solutions, Tacklesport continues to expand its team and their skill set. We continue to work with major organisations on exciting projects and to launch major resources for the Youth Sport Trust, the England and Wales Cricket Board, England Basketball and the Rugby Football League ‐ to name just a few.
