Club History
The Beginning
Ace Rollers
skating club was formed in the
millennium year on the 15th June, 2000. When it started ,it had only seven skaters, who were not novice to
skating but
had already learnt the art of skating and had participated in various
state and national level competitions. The parents of these skaters who
were behind the formation of
the club are the true dedicated team who had one common vision :
"Skating is
an art and the game is to be promoted in its true sense and make it
affordable to every child who is interested in skating with no bar on cast
creed or affluent".
Initially these skaters used to practice under the
guidance of their parents
at at the Jayanagar
stadium and at Vidhan Soudha peripheral road. Today the club is
proud to have over 150 young skaters from the age group of 4 years &
above; who are trained by two physical instructors, one national
skater and a physical fitness trainer of national repute to groom the children to participate in various
district /state/national/international competitions.
