Thanks also to those who brought along a helmet and those who brought their own equipment as it really speeds things up at the start and gets everyone skating quickly.

If you have been coming along to our sessions for a while now you will have noticed we are growing in size. This has meant that many of you are having to queue for longer to get your equipment before you can start skating, to avoid any delay there are a few things you can do:

Bring a cycle helmet
Buy your own set of pads
Invest in your own skates, kids skates now come in adjustable sizes so they fit for longer, e.g. adjusting from size 1 to 3.

10% DISCOUNT! - AT SPORTS OF BOND STREET, YEOVIL.
