The NottinghamSkaters
Saturday Meetup
There is a NottinghamSkaters meetup (almost) every weekend! Whether indoors or outdoors, this session is open to any skater, any age: beginner, intermediate or expert; student, local or old school; inline, quaddie or biskateual.
You can usually expect the following:
- Skating lessons for beginners.
- Tuition and/or practice in the freestyle skating arts: style slalom, speed slalom, freejump, slides and stair-riding.
- Street hockey and other rollersports including rollerfootball, rollerbasketball and roller-Frisbee.
- A slow-paced street skate when outdoors. Good practice for the Wednesday Night Skate.
- Tarting. (Skater term for standing around with skates on, talking and not actually skating. We do this quite a lot).
Any new skaters are welcome to join us on Saturdays for FREE SKATING LESSONS. Also, please post on the forum or send us an email if you are coming for beginner lessons, so we know to expect you and have an instructor present.
The next Saturday meetup is INDOORS at SB on 13th March 2010.

Google Map: A Google Map of the area. It is a little out of date though: the Sports Centre was not built when this photo was taken! It's now on the football pitch below the light green coloured astroturf. If you zoom in, you can see the JCB digger clearing the ground for the car park!
