Sports And Recreation Are A Major Element Of Southeast Asia’s World-Class Sport And Corporate Events Centre

In the near future: An unparalleled innovative Sports and Recreation are attached to the groundbreaking  Phuket International Academy Sports and Leisure Club (PIASLC) is poised to become Asia’s top competition, training and event complex when it opens this November.  Combining a tremendous location with unmatched facilities, it is already attracting attention from foremost international sporting institutions and international corporations.

The complex is situated on 54 acres of land in the northern section of Phuket, Thailand.  It boasts an extensive array of high-class sports facilities that include an International Rugby Board-standard rugby pitch, FIFA-approved football field, competitive fifty-meter eight lane outdoor swimming pool (suitable for water polo and competitive swimming), a fully shaded 25 metre, eight lane swimming pool, toddler’s and children’s pools and play area, 6 tennis courts, a 500 metre athletics running track and a StarTrac equipped hi-tech gym, as well as  a performing arts centre and a Thai Herbal Garden Spa.   Phuket International Academy Sports and Leisure Club Sports, Leisure and Events Centre.

Accommodations are available in the form of two boutique hotels, providing 115 well-appointed rooms and suites for visitors, athletes, teams and corporate groups. The club has rapidly gained appreciation through high-profile affiliations with international sporting organizations such as Brazilian Soccer Schools (BSS), NZRugbyResources (NZRR), and IronKids Triathlon.    Announcement of tennis and swimming connections are expected soon.

The PIASLC  is committed to being the foremost sports and corporate event center in Asia.   Not only delivering Asia’s unsurpassed facilities for sports but also tremendous facilities and accommodations for conferences, incentives, retreats and teambuilding. 

PIASLC announced “As a fully-integrated complex, we are also going to be the perfect location for companies looking to build something active, creative or wellness inspired into their event programmes.”

NZRugbyResources Director, David Adamson, said the PIASLC facilities were “second to none” and perfect for conducting elite and amateur training camps and competitions.

The preeminent youth soccer training programme is also based at the highest regarded sports and recreation PIASLC complex.   Famous BSS is based upon Futebol de Salao (FDS).  The training and game is characterized as a 5-a-side version of football with origins in Brazil.  FDS is played with a smaller (size 2), and slightly heavier (465gm) ball that has virtually no bounce to it. 

The PIASLC has also confirmed an association with the US-based IronKids programme. This  partnership will support four junior Triathlon events per year as well as training camps for kids aged between 6 and 15.

The PIASLC  has brought in former professional tennis player David Roberts as Director of Operations to oversee the day-to-day operations at the large Phuket, Thailand sports centre.  David offers experience in both operations and pre-openings.  He has run elite private sports clubs while with Centara Hotels and Resorts Group.  When the PIASLC completes construction in November and begins into full operations he will be focused on the co-ordination between club services, sports academies and membership programmes.

The PIASLC  will be delivering a variety of world-class sports, arts, wellness and recreational facilities and programmes for the enjoyment of visitors, the school’s pupils, their families, the local Phuket community and for visiting professional and amateur individual athletes and teams from around the world.  PIASLC is going to establish a benchmark as a regional hub for sports, arts and wellness in Thailand and Asia, and perhaps the world.   Phuket International Academy is an integrated facility hosting Phuket’s newest International School, a multi-faceted Sports and Leisure Club for elite athletes, amateur enthusiasts, artists and wellness seekers – all within the Mind Centre sanctuary that provides training in the cultivation of mental and emotional equilibrium.  Located in the northern reaches of Phuket, just 15 minutes from Phuket International Airport, PIA also [includes two 38-room boutique hotels and an impressive range of facilities ideal for corporate retreats, seminars, and teambuilding programmes and events.

As part of a uniquely integrated complex, the Sports and Leisure Club works in synergy with both the PIADS and PIAMC.   The Phuket International Academy Day School is working to achieve a three programme International Baccalaureate (IB) World School.   As a leading international school in Thailand, it will incorporate the uniqueness of Asian culture and the best from Western educational methods, to develop inquiring, informed, and empathetic young people who know how to live with honor, cultivate true happiness, and strive to create a more peaceful and sustainable world.   Click this link for additional information on the Phuket International Academy Day School International School Thailand.

As part of a total commitment to sports excellence the Phuket International Academy Mind Centre has begun to make available training in the cultivation of cognitive and emotional balance.   The Phuket International Academy Mind Centre will  offer  a blend of modern psychology and neuroscience alongside traditional Asian contemplative practices.  Working in close interaction with the Phuket International Academy Day School and the PIA Sports and Leisure Club, the programmes offered by PIAMC will contribute to everyone’s enhanced mental equilibrium
and wellbeing.  Some retreats incorporates two methods for cultivating meditative quiescence called shamatha.     It teaches the practice of “mindfulness of breathing”, which is an effective technique for soothing the body and calming the mind. A second method taught is both a shamatha practice and vipashyana, “insight meditation” called “settling the mind in its natural state”.  Phuket International Academy Mind Centre Meditation, Mind Studies, and Retreats.
