What’s Happening?
MultiMatch, the first interactive sports studio of its kind, has launched its flagship studio in the Redlands, bringing an innovative approach to fitness, skill development, and inclusion.
Founded by Leah James, the cutting-edge facility integrates skill-based technology, interactive gameplay, and adaptive fitness to create a dynamic space where everyone—kids, adults, athletes, and people with disabilities—can participate in a way that suits their abilities.
Why It Matters?
Traditional sports can sometimes present barriers to participation due to skill level, accessibility, or competitiveness. Leah James developed MultiMatch from scratch to provide an alternative, fostering a more engaging, inclusive, and skill-focused sports environment.
The overwhelmingly positive response from families, schools, and community groups underscores the need for diverse and accessible ways to stay active beyond conventional sports.
Local Impact
With Redland City’s continued focus on inclusive community initiatives, MultiMatch is a welcome addition to the region’s recreational offerings. The facility is already seeing strong local support and aims to collaborate with schools, community groups, and organisations to expand its reach and impact.
By the Numbers
- The studio has already engaged hundreds of participants since its launch.
- MultiMatch offers multiple adaptive fitness programs tailored to all abilities.
- Community demand for alternative sports activities is rising, highlighting the need for innovation in fitness and recreation.

“I wanted to create a space where everyone can play, compete and improve their skills—without the barriers of typical sports settings,” said Leah James, founder of MultiMatch. “MultiMatch is all about fun, fitness and inclusion, and we’re proud to bring something completely new to the Redlands.”
Zoom Out
As more communities explore new ways to promote physical activity and inclusion, MultiMatch serves as a model for innovative sports and fitness solutions. With the increasing adoption of technology-driven fitness experiences, this concept could inspire similar developments across Australia.
What to Look for Next?
MultiMatch is seeking partnerships with local organisations and funding opportunities to expand its programs and make its facilities even more accessible. Future plans may include additional locations and collaborations with schools to integrate interactive sports into their curriculum.
