Cowes Skatepark, a local skateboarding club in Cowes, is excited to promote an upcoming skateboarding event in collaboration with Skate Park Leagues. Skate Park Leagues, a grassroots competition series, has been offering young people across Australia the opportunity to showcase their skills in skateboarding, BMX, and scootering since its launch in 2007.
With over 100 events scheduled every year, Skate Park Leagues provides a national platform for young people to engage with their community and demonstrate their talent. The seasons run from 1 January to 31 December, giving participants ample opportunities to display their skills throughout the year. Best of all, it's free of charge, making it accessible to all.
If you're eager to compete, you can enrol today to secure your spot in the competition. By finishing in the top three places on the state league ladder, you'll even qualify for the highly anticipated Australian Skate Park and Skateboarding League National Championships.
For those interested in keeping up with upcoming events, Skate Park Leagues has an informative events calendar on their website. With over 6,600 active members and more than 180 events nationwide, the series attracts a staggering 65,000 attendees or participants annually.
Not only does Skate Park Leagues bring together young athletes, but it also encompasses a broader objective of creating positive social change. With support from over 90 local government areas and invested organisations, these events aim to empower young people and foster a sense of community. And here's some exciting news – the events can be run as pop-up events or sanctioned events for a fee, regularly attracting between 300 to 600 individuals.
If you are a like-minded organisation or council and would like to join forces with Skate Park Leagues to promote positive social change, you can find more information on their website.
So mark your calendars and get ready to witness some incredible skateboarding skills at the upcoming event at Cowes Skatepark. It's guaranteed to be a day filled with impressive tricks, vibrant energy, and a celebration of the skate park culture that brings us all together. See you there!
