Free skateboarding clinics, enrol now!

Date Published: 19/05/2010

Thanks to the support of the Department of Sport and Recreation, YMCA HQ is hosting seventeen Streetwise skateboarding clinics in 2010 across the State. The aim of this program is to increase participation rates in the sport of Skateboarding and provide opportunities for existing skaters to improve their skills.

The Streetwise Skateboarding clinics are run by accredited coaches and are tailored for a variety of skill levels. The YMCA Aqua Jetty (Warnbro) Streetwise clinic is scheduled for Saturday 12th of June. There is currently no skate park in Warnbro which makes this clinic unique as it will be held on the basketball courts adjacent to YMCA Aqua Jetty on portable skate equipment.

Thanks to YMCA Aqua Jetty, YMCA HQ and the Department of Sport & Recreation it is FREE to register for the two hour coaching workshops. However places are limited so early registration is essential.

Participants are grouped in the coaching sessions according to their ability, rather than age. The YMCA Aqua Jetty sessions will cater for Beginner and Intermediate skaters. Helmets must be worn during workshops. 

Registration forms for this workshop are available at YMCA Aqua Jetty or can be downloaded from http://www.hq.org.au/Events.aspx  

YMCA HQ has limited helmets and boards which can be borrowed for the workshop; however this must be confirmed prior to registering. To discuss hiring equipment or for further information please contact Gemma Richman on 9328 3221 or gemma.richman@ymca.org.au  

Keep checking the YMCA Perth and YMCA HQ websites for dates of other upcoming workshops.
