Family learn n' Roller Skate

Family friendly all ages and abilities session. Please note, the stated time includes kit on/ off time.

What happens at family friendly learn n' roll?

It is a roller disco, but at the Ramgarhia Sports Centre!

Expect old school disco vibes, with tips to improve your skating and optional games, complete with cold soft drinks.

Quad and inline skaters are welcome. We have a small amount of space for accompanying non-skating partners and parents/carers.

We allow parents/carers to walk with their child within the practise zone space, not around the full hall thank you.

Roller skating is hard at any age! We expect all skaters to encourage each other and give less experienced skaters a bit more room.

Is this a coached session?

We are able to offer mini workshops in the form of a few quick tips, but our team needs to look after all the skaters in the session. This includes checking you've put wrist guards on correctly - they are tricky - to getting our newer skaters rolling. After that, we will do our best to support other skate skills requested within the session, but for more structured learning, check our sessions at The Skate Sanctuary.

These are split by age and skill level so we can really tailor our coaching to your needs.

There is a part of the hall set out as a 'practise zone' for building confidence, while the rest of the hall is set out as a rink. We may play games during the session. All games are optional - if you do not wish to take part, simply keep skating in the practise zone.

Will skate hire be available?

Yes, you will be able to hire our roller skates. Please make sure you book a separate skate hire ticket and tell us the size you need. We will have protective pads available for you to borrow on a first come first served basis.

Will refreshments be available?

Yes. A selection of cold drinks will be available. Please note: Due to the nature of the venue we are unable to provide hot drinks - There is no cafe onsite. You're welcome to bring your own hot drink, this must be in a cup with a lid. If you wish to bring your own snack, please eat these outside the hall.

How do I find the venue?

The Ramgarhia Sikh Sports Centre is near Sheepscar Interchange on Chapeltown road. Drive in through the ornate gates and up the slope to the sports hall at the back of the site.

There is plenty of free parking outside the front of the sports centre. Bus stops are right outside the gate.

Please wait in the hallway outside the sports hall until invited in. It is helpful if you have your ticket ready to scan.
