- Race preparation
- Tactics
- Structured training
Our talented team of instructors led by Coach Chris keeps practices family oriented while keeping a high caliber of expectation.
Race training for Contra Costa County skaters
Racing skaters train on the oval at Martinez Jr High School, our track venue, and outdoors at Parkmead Elementary School in Walnut Creek, depending on availability and skater numbers. Skaters who have advanced to a level approved by the Coach may also attend indoor practices in Antioch on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 7:30 – 10:00 PM.
Not race-ready yet? The Advanced program builds the double-push, starts, drafting and endurance that racing needs, and every skater can start in the Beginner program. Get ready for the new racing season: contact Coach Chris to reserve a practice or register.
