Designed for beginner skateboarders with little to no experience, this class teaches fundamental skateboarding tricks and skills.  Concentrating on balance, turning, accelerating, stopping, transitions, dropping in, Ollies, and a variety of other skills, we not only teach tricks but help participants develop the confidence to apply them on their own. Proper safety equipment (helmet, knee and elbow pads, and wrist guards) and skateboards are required.  For those that can't bring a skateboard, they will be provided but you must let us know upon registration.  Participants must keep all safety gear on at all times and wear athletic shoes.

This league is for female players rated 3.25 - 3.5.  This is an individual round-robin league - no partner needed! Players will play six games each week in a round-robin format with different partners and against different opponents in each game.  Game schedules will be published on the morning of gameplay.  Each week, players will be individually ranked according to games won and points scored.  The ultimate goal is to climb the ladder to the highest rung while having fun playing each week.  Gold, silver, and bronze will be awarded at the end of the league based on the highest percentage of game wins versus games played and, secondarily, the highest percentage of points won versus points possible.  Participants must compete in at least 50% of the games possible to medal. Maximum Players: 14  Northborough Recreation reserves the right to move a player to a league with a more similar skill level to ensure league parity.
