Why speedskate?  Speedskating is truly a sport for all ages. 

Our club has skaters as young as 3 and some who are in their 50’s and beyond. 

Some enjoy speedskating for the fitness they get, some enjoy the thrill of competing.

The skaters in our club also enjoy friendships with fellow skaters from all over the state

and the country. They have met and shared ice with World and Olympic team members

and have the autographs on their helmets to prove it!  Speedskating is not as large of an

organization as some sports, like hockey and figure skating.  There really is a strong

sense of community at the events we attend.  We also have some members who joined

this as a second sport that helps them with their general skating ability, perfecting their

stride for hockey or inline racing.  Speedskating is also a very family friendly activity.

You can pick and choose which events suit your family calendar.  When you compete in

speedskating meets, you also learn a lot about goal setting and are able to have

successes that emphasize your improvements when you track your times and set

“Personal Bests”, rather than simply seeing success in terms of awards.

And of course, some of us simply love to go fast!

Whatever your reasons, come give it a try!!!!

 

We have a limited amount of rental speed skates available for those attending the clinic.

In the event that we do not have your size available, we do have access to rental hockey

and figure skates, which you may use for the first class, or until we are able to borrow

your size from another area club. 

Other equipment needed: 

Helmet – hockey or bike is fine

Gloves – baseball gloves work well

Shin guards – soccer style without the hard ankle sock attached

Knee pads – inline or volleyball

Long pants and long sleeved shirt

Warm layers

Thin socks – to get a better fit in your skates

I also recommend that each skater bring a water bottle to each practice

 

There is a limited amount of room in the clinic, and registration will be taken on a first

come, first served basis.  If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email

coach Shannon Holmes at shannyh@hotmail.com or call at 983-6614.
