We have delivered more 5e55iQnS, Wlth More hours of face-to-f4ce youth work than any of our prÈvious 19 years. Young peoplÈ tÈll us they want more opportunities to visit us and more sessions to get involved with. Thankfully due to some extra funding13St year we were able to fulfil that demand and start opening on Sundays. This extra time has enabled us to be more flexible too offering a wider variety of sessions to different user groups and help keep our offer sustainable, SESSIONS ATTEYIIAIICES IHII'51HREE5E5511115 A WEEKFDRMORE TM1148WEIK51111E YEAR 17VOUI&PIOPIIAI E¥EIv5E55￿II WEYE5UPPURTEU244 IILIVIDUIIYQUIS IWII11 PL151111E AtIlVlllE5AI lEM1￿*w511Ls U5AIiUUR TRIP5. IUMMU￿riEWEITs In 2024 we increased the number of 5e5SiOnS offer by 40% and in¢￿ased young peoples, attÈndancÈ by 10%. Skateboarding can be a very rnale dominated activity, so we pay close attention to our demographics to make Sure we are as responsive as p055ible to the needs ol young people. A 65135 gender split can be normal for a youth centre, but thi5 will be an 4im lor next year to promote our gir15 only Session fflore. Unfortunately it 15 in our Girl'5 only skateboarding se55ion where we've seen a drop in attendance. We feel thi5 15 a norrnal waxinglwaning, but have a strategy in place to protnote thè sessions and Èncourage any girls that want to start skating. Predorninant1y recorded for funder5, thi5 data help5 show that the rnajority of people we work with are agÈd 13-19. Ourjnr sÈssions makÈ an allowantÈ down to 11 yeÈrs to allow anyone In Secondary Èducation to attend. and our Snr session can make an allowance ovÈr 19 for anyone that has additional needs. With our new Sunday sessions, we've been able to introduce a time open to the public. This means anyone outside our normal age range can attend and get to skate the park. This has meant families can skate together, and adults just starting to skate can benefit from our great little park.

Often young people through the Skate Committee decide Whe￿ and when. and plan out the budget. The first of the trips featured here was part of a joint project working with two other youth centres FACE at Kingswood and CYN at Hanham. By working together young people get great opportunities without it costing too much. They also get to meet and chat with new young people and maybe swap idea5 for what work5 at their youth club. The venue wa5 the West Country Waterpark, where for the summerthey had an amazing inflatablÈ assault course.

I was $0 Impressed that $0 many skaters on the trip ÈnterÈd in the comps and getting so close to the podium. some had only been skating 3 few months and the crowd was BIGI To encourage a few to enter. Rob signed up and even bagged 3rd place in the over 20s comp A big trip of the Summer was the Skate Committee's Vlslt to Pitt St Skatepark. Pitt St have taken over an abandoned Sain5bury'$ Store in the heart of Portsmouth and created an amazing space for all wheeled sPOrt5. With a gla55V Smooth floor, big wide open spaces, and a fant45tic tnix of 5trÈet obstacles, the boarding school skaters were dÈsperate to have a skate somÈwherÈ they'd be kicked out of for skating normally. With it being a 5 hour round trip we decided to stop off at Warminster on the way, for Stretch of the legs and Some lunch. The Sun was shining, the birds were singin& what more could you ask for? We arrived in Port5nlOUth just as the heat become a bit oppre55ive, so the shelter of an old Sain5bury'5 roof was welcomel Also the hÈat had sÈemed to put any other 5k3ters off. so we had the place to ourselves pretty muchl Dinner in the Pitt St in-house cafe and then a long drive back to Brizzle with tales of tricks and slam5 from the day.

Just as well they made us wear helmÈts hÈyl Next stop was Spit & sawdust after lunch.The group skated till there was nothing left in the tank and we headed back to camp.

In 2023 we celebrated the day by hosting a BBQ at Warmley Skatepark and running some games of S.K.A.T.E with prizesl We ran two heats for beginners and advanced but everyone left with something. It was also a great way to introduce George to the team! Lihgo Fs Ws BS Frontside and Backside refers to which way round you're turning or spinning on your board. It seems simple, but there are some weird rules and can often confuse new skaters when we're describing trick5. Here we're going to try and get it clear a5 mud: &oofy Regq14r RigAt hot Korw4rd Left kot hrw4r4 The rules for FS .. B5 mainly come from Vert skating and if the coping is in front of you or behind you but we'll break it down, lets go I Spins.. So as mentioned before, think about the spin on vert. For the first part of the spin is the coping in front or behind? Many also like to say "if my back is on the outside of the turn, it's backside" which works. For Goofy skaters fs= clockwise bs= anti-clockwise Rails, Ledges, and Lips: A simple wayto think about the rule here is if the ledge or rail is in front as you pop or behind. if it's in front, its FSI If it's behind it's BSI Newer skaters can get confused here as we spin FS 90 degree5 to get into a BS board51ide. I know right? l But think back to that first thing, most of the rules came from vert so it might help to think about the rail as a lip rather than spin direction. Nollie & Fakie- Here's where things can get pretty confusing even for long time skaters. Fakie FS and BS are exactly as they would be if you were rolling forward, that's fine they look the same anyway. Nollie FS and BS are as theywould be IF you popped the tail. Thi5 means they look different and where most ppl get caught out. A Nollie BS 180, looks like we should call it FS, The front of our body is on the outside of the rotation, and the feeling is similar too. Think back to if the trick wa5 on vert though and it makes sense that it's BS, and the anti-clockwise or clockwise direction still works too. Lots say "Nollie is opposite., which works from an aestetic pov. erby k4rt R4ee On September 9th the good folks at The Bean Tree cafe in Page Park held the first community Derby Kart race! Teams had to push their home-made karts in teams of three11 driver, 2 pushers) round a set course in a shoot out competition. Our young volunteer N ick led the build crew over several months to create our skateboard inspired kartl We learnt lots of new skills and of course, we had to have a go at actually skating ittool On the day the sun was sweltering, the races were exhausting, and many karts were coming apart at the bolts. We weren't the fastest but very happy with how solid Nick made the kart and to have got involved with this great community event. 11 Slf4te604rd C&4irs Our youth committee gave us a tall order for lots of trip5 this year which needed their help to raise funds for. Their answer was to make Skate Chairsl Re-cycling old unwanted skateboards into this years must have home decor, volunteers stripped, modified and created this pair of rad chairs. They then went up on Facebook and sold for £701 which paid for a minibus to Portsmouth I F4¥VloqS F4ees h4*4e 411 OK tAese f4¥vits¥S slrdt¢rs 4w4rds 4hd Fihge 04rds Throughout the year, as young peope work on their targets or learn new skills at the youth club, our staff are helping them record and log all of this in their accreditation folders. Once a young person has completed ten hours of work in their folder, they can complete that section of the South Glos Youth Award. At the end of the year we invite all young people who've completed a section to attend the South Glos Awards night, where they can collect their awards and celebrate their achievements and the achievements of so manv other young people from across the South Glos area. This year our volunteers worked hard on a new fingerboard park which would become our groups table centrepiece on the night. Theres always lots of activities on the night too. a huge buffet, live music and performances I This year we had 7 younE people attend the night but 53 young people complete either a section of the SouthGlos Award, DofE award, or SBGB Cruiser award!
