Our Fife Roller Ski Club (FRSC) will be starting back this coming Monday, 10 May. The club runs weekly coached sessions, which are open to all ages and abilities, focusing on developing cross-country ski skills and enjoying snowsport even when there’s no snow. This year we’re excited be introducing “Monthly Events” and also “Beginner Blocks”.

 

Our monthly events will be the first Monday of every month and will range from exploring the cycleways of Fife to our now annual Halloween dress up (this will be year 3 of inventive, helmet friendly costumes). We’ve also got silly races and training opportunities (such as equipment maintenance) pencilled in.

 

Beginner Blocks are four-week courses where we will get roller ski beginners through the basics so that they feel comfortable and competent joining the main club session or even going out roller skiing by themselves. Our first offering will kick off Monday 14 June and go through to Monday 5 July. We have two further blocks planned for August and October.

 

More info on the club, the venue and our plans for the year available in our Info pack and on our Facebook Page.
