The BATAK Story

BATAK at Bisham Abbey The original BATAK can be seen here being played at the National Sports Centre, Bisham Abbey.

The word BATAK stems from the two words 'BAT' and 'ATTACK'. The first generation BATAK machines, as seen above, had 48 target lights and were played with a special foam tipped racquet. These early machines were used in National Sports Centres and at the Wimbledon U.K. tennis tournament proving enormously popular. Smaller versions were used in promotional work and Mercedes Benz previously used one of these in
their Association of Tennis Professionals (A.T.P.) worldwide tennis sponsorship tour.

BATAK as seen on T.V. BATAK has featured on the ITV hit series 'BODYHEAT' which set out to find the fittest young couple in the U.K.

At the end of each show the exhausted challengers faced the BATAK wall which was called on to test their reaction times, stamina levels and hand eye co-ordination ability.

The series proved so popular that it ran for 3 years in succession. BATAK has also appeared on numerous other television programmes throughout the world and is fast becoming recognised in the health and fitness industry.


In fact, there is now an official BATAK World Record of a staggering 99 target strikes in only 60 seconds!
