ROLLER SKATES

For Club Sessions, Roller Dance Skates, Roller Disco Skates, In-line Skates or Children's strap on skates can be worn.  The Club has a good supply of Roller Dance skates which can be hired for £2 per session / day, subject to availability.

Roller Dance Skates are needed when skating in lesson groups. They can be hired or purchased new or second hand.  You are advised to seek advice from coaches before buying skates.

Some second hand skates are available within the Club or can often be purchased at Inter Club competitions.  Prices range mostly from £30 to  £80 depending on quality. 

New skates can be purchased on line - see also links page with websites of suppliers. 

Inexpensive skates are available from Freesport on e-Bay (from £28) - these are suitable for Beginners.
