A new indoor activity entertainment centre is opening in Digbeth, Birmingham.
The Floodgate social sports and games bar is opening soon in Digbeth and will offer people the chance to play the game of Pit-Pat.
Pit-Pat is similar to minigolf, but is played on elevated tables where you use cues to play the ball, rather than putters.

The Floodgate opens at The Custard Factory in Digbeth, Birmingham on Friday 1st November.
The Pit-Pat layout at The Floodgate will be the UK's first indoor Pit-Pat and the only playable course. Until a few years ago the UK's first and only other Pit-Pat layout was on the seafront at Western Putting on Banjo Road in Littlehampton.

I first saw the game of Pit-Pat aka Hindernis Billard while on a minigolfing trip to Austria in March 2010.

As well as Pit-Pat the indoor competitive socialising venue will feature a curling rink and baseball batting cages.
We're looking forward to a Crazy World of Minigolf Tour visit to The Floodgate.
