TeamSport Indoor Karting is proud to celebrate our partner Fast Forward Vocational Training Ltd, who have been awarded the prestigious Growth Award at the Hull & East Yorkshire Business Awards.

Fast Forward Wins Growth Award

TeamSport Indoor Karting is proud to celebrate our partner Fast Forward Vocational Training Ltd, who have been awarded the prestigious Growth Award at the Hull & East Yorkshire Business Awards. This recognition highlights the incredible impact of Fast Forward’s work and the strength of our shared mission to create real-world opportunities for young people who thrive outside traditional classrooms.

Since 2019, TeamSport has partnered with Fast Forward to deliver a unique Motor Vehicle Studies program, giving learners hands-on experience in a live motorsport environment. From maintaining karts to understanding vehicle systems, students gain practical skills that lead to nationally recognised qualifications - and a clear pathway into employment.

“Partnering with Fast Forward allows us to give back to the community and nurture the next generation of motorsport enthusiasts and engineers,” said Gavin Adair, TeamSport CEO. “Seeing them win the Growth Award is a proud moment for us too, it proves that together, we’re making a real difference.”

What started as a small pilot in Bradford with just eight learners has grown into a national model, recognised by an OFSTED Inspector in 2022 as the “gold standard of alternative provision.” Today, more than 3,000 learners have completed the Motor Vehicle Studies pathway, with many progressing into further training or employment - including roles at TeamSport tracks.

“TeamSport is the ideal partner for us because they share our belief that every young person deserves a chance to thrive. They bring a professional, real-world environment and a national footprint that allows us to reach more learners. Their ethos of high standards, safety, and progression mirrors our own. They don’t just provide a venue—they’re part of the learning journey, and that makes all the difference.”
— Callum Thompson, Founder of Fast Forward Vocational Training Ltd

2019: Bradford pilot launched with 8 students

2021: Expansion to Liverpool, Warrington, Stockton

2022: OFSTED recognition and doubling of learners year-on-year

2023: 400+ students enrolled, rising to 550+ in 2024

2025: On course to reach 870 learners across multiple sites

The program is designed for young people who struggle in traditional education settings. By learning in a high-energy, practical environment, students build confidence, develop real-world skills, and discover a sense of purpose. Schools report improved attendance, parents share stories of renewed enthusiasm, and learners consistently say they enjoy this program more than anything else.

Fast Forward plans to expand its curriculum and progression pathways, including a Post-16 option leading to a TeamSport apprenticeship, and will open its first Independent SEN School in Hull in early 2026. Together, we’re committed to deepening this partnership and creating even more opportunities for young people across the UK.

Step into the driver’s seat and discover the power of the smart steering wheel! This isn’t just a wheel, it’s your personal racing command centre.

Real-Time Data: See your lap times, race position, and session stats right on the wheel’s integrated display. Stay informed and push your limits every lap.

Race Warnings & Flags: Get instant alerts for circuit conditions, it highlights when there is a safety flag, so you’re always in the know and in control.

Imagine a track that responds instantly to every twist, turn, and stoppage, keeping you safe without slowing down the excitement. Our new automated safety system uses advanced sensors and numerous beacons installed around the circuit to detect kart positions and movements in real time.

Zone-Based Safety: If a kart stops or spins, the system automatically activates yellow lights in the affected sectors, slowing karts in those sectors. The rest of the track stays ‘live’ so the action can continue.

Red Light Response: If multiple stoppages occur, the system can instantly switch the whole track to red, ensuring everyone slows to a safe walking pace until marshals clear the area.

These upgrades aren’t just about technology, they’re about giving you the best, safest, and most exciting racing experience possible.

Qualifying Concludes for the World’s Largest Indoor Motorsport Championship

TeamSport Indoor Karting, the largest indoor karting company in the UK, is proud to announce an exciting new partnership with EXCELR8, one of the leading teams in the Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship. 

TeamSport and EXCELR8 Announce Official Partnership

TEAMSPORT and EXCELR8 ANNOUNCE OFFICIAL PARTNERSHIP

EXCELR8, which runs the Team VERTU programme in the BTCC and operates cars in the Vertu MINI CHALLENGE, has previously had indirect ties to TeamSport through a shared relationship with BIZ Karts, one of the world’s leading go-kart manufacturers. 

This new official partnership between TeamSport and EXCELR8 builds on that foundation and marks the beginning of a more direct collaboration, with both parties working closely together throughout the remainder of the 2025 season, which resumes at Croft in North Yorkshire next month. 

Aligning with a front-running team like EXCELR8 presents an exciting opportunity for TeamSport to grow its presence within the motorsport community and beyond. With a brand-new venue opening in Brent Cross later this year, TeamSport will expand to 38 UK locations and six more across Europe – further cementing its position as the leader in indoor karting. 

The partnership will allow TeamSport to engage directly with a passionate fanbase that shares its love for speed, racing, and on-track competition, while also working collaboratively with EXCELR8 to bring the thrill of the BTCC to a wider audience.

Symon Wooldridge, TeamSport Chief Operating Officer, said:

“We’re thrilled to be partnering with EXCELR8, a team that shares our passion for motorsport, performance, and inspiring the next generation of racers. This collaboration is a fantastic opportunity to connect with racing fans across the UK and bring the excitement of indoor karting to an even wider audience. With BTCC’s huge following and EXCELR8’s on-track success, we’re looking forward to an exhilarating journey together.” 

Justina Williams, EXCELR8 Team Owner said:

“We’re delighted to announce our new partnership with TeamSport as we prepare to kickstart the second half of our season in the coming weeks. 

“There are obvious synergies between what we do as a race team and how TeamSport operates as a business, so the decision to join forces makes perfect sense for us both - particularly when we have already worked together indirectly in the past. 

“I have no doubt that this partnership will be a success over the coming months and we’re looking forward to working with everyone at TeamSport through the remainder of the season.”
