Sega World Tamworth was an indoor Sega World arcade located in Strykers Pleasure Bowl, River Drive, Tamworth, Staffordshire, United Kingdom. Its exact opening and final closing dates are not known, however it must have been open in 1996 because a Sega Rally contest was held there.[1]

The arcade started life as the upper floor of the bowling centre. One night a week the games would be set to freeplay and an entry fee was charged at the door. Later the arcade moved downstairs into a smaller area. At some point it the arcade was renamed Sega Park.

In 2001, Namco bought the bowling alley, and rebranded Sega Park as Namco Station, which still remains to this day.
