The company, founded by Len Kelly (pictured), has been operating, developing, manufacturing and supplying laser tag systems since 1987.

“To still be in business after 25 years has taken perseverance and a great deal of hard work," said Kelly. "Throughout that time, it has particularly been a pleasure to see laser tag go from something that was brushed off as little more than a passing fad to now being in the mainstream and a must-have for many FECs and bowling centres.

“I feel a sense of accomplishment and think it's a great testament to our hard work that 120 businesses worldwide are now operating with Laserforce equipment."

In recent years, Kelly has been gradually handing over responsibilities for the company to his son, Sam.

"It has been a great experience and has taken a lot of hard work getting heavily involved with Laserforce over the past three years," Sam said. "I am passionate about Laserforce because it is my family's business. I take great pride in my work and I want to see the company grow.

“I would love to see laser tag played in every FEC, bowling centre and theme park in the world because I know how much fun it is. It is something I grew up with."
