Transforming training spaces: How BLK BOX elevated Huddersfield Town Football Club’s gyms

At BLK BOX, we believe that a gym should be more than just a space filled with equipment—it should be a performance-driven environment that inspires athletes to reach their full potential.

When Huddersfield Town Football Club approached us to transform their pre-activation/movement and free-weights rooms, we knew we had the opportunity to create something truly special for their players.

Understanding the client’s vision

Huddersfield Town FC had a clear vision: they wanted to improve the flow and functionality of their training spaces, maximizing floor space and providing access to a broader range of equipment. Our team was excited to take on the challenge of creating two distinct yet cohesive training environments that catered to the specific needs of their players.

Ground floor strength room

The ground floor was reimagined to enhance strength and conditioning sessions with a custom Goliath Nexus & testing rack combo with integrated storage, an integrated Smith machine, adjustable Jammer arms, and custom adjustable benches. The addition of a Keiser Functional Trainer, bespoke throw wall, seal row, Keiser squat, and portable force-plate surround further equipped the space, while our seamless fusion performance floor with custom logos provided the perfect finishing touch.

First floor pre-activation room

Upstairs, the focus was on creating a versatile and functional pre-activation room. We installed bespoke functional storage solutions, Wattbike Pros, another Keiser Functional Trainer, and a bespoke throw wall. The room was completed with a range of Concept 2 equipment, stackable soft plyo boxes, custom turf, and the same seamless fusion performance flooring to maintain continuity between the spaces.

Delivering on passion and precision

One of the most rewarding aspects of this project was working closely with Daniel Hughes and Callum Adams, who were deeply passionate about bringing their vision to life. Their enthusiasm matched our commitment to delivering exceptional spaces that support athlete performance.

Looking ahead

We’re thrilled to see these spaces in action and are proud to have played a role in enhancing the training environment for Huddersfield Town FC. At BLK BOX, we’re not just in the business of building gyms—we build performance spaces that inspire and empower.

This project is a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation. By listening to our clients and leveraging our expertise, we’re able to deliver bespoke solutions that elevate training experiences. We look forward to seeing Huddersfield Town FC thrive in their new spaces and wish them all the success in the season ahead, both on and off the pitch.
