by Erica Schietinger
(New York, NY – March 8, 2012) – Chelsea Piers Connecticut is pleased to announce that BlueStreak Sports Training of Stamford, Connecticut will open a second Stamford branch at the new sports facility, Chelsea Piers Connecticut.
BlueStreak Sports Training is an athletic skills-development center dedicated to sport performance enhancement for dedicated athletes of every level.
The BlueStreak facility at CPCT is the second BlueStreak for Fairfield County. The CPCT BlueStreak location will feature the same Generation III Super Treadmills, Patented ice hockey treadmill, sportspecific cord technology, and specialized strength equipment that BlueStreak offers in North Stamford.
Located within the Chelsea Piers Connecticut complex, in a 7,000 square-foot space that over looks on of the two NHL-regulation-sized ice rinks, the BlueStreak facility will provide specialized training that complements the on-field, on-ice, on-court training that teams and individuals receive at CPCT.
“We are happy to be able to join this exciting project,” commented Matt Cole, President BlueStreak CT. “We were at capacity during our peak seasons at our North Stamford location. This second Stamford location has an ideal opportunity for us to serve an even broader market of athletes, including eastern Westchester and the towns along the 95 corridor in Connecticut.”
“We believe the BlueStreak product is critical in developing a well-rounded athlete as they move through their competitive career,” said Mollie A. Marcoux, Executive Director, Chelsea Piers Connecticut. “We are thrilled BlueStreak has decided to join us at CPCT and we look forward to our competitive teams utilizing the off-field, off-court and off-ice training that they are so talented at providing.”
