This year im really looking forward to the new inline season but I wont be racing for London skaters, I will be racing for errsa. Im actually losing a lot out by joining this club,trainin with Adrian, possible financial help with my skating, the reason why im leaving is that the coach of errsa Malcolm Chapman really believes in young people and I want to join him in helping youngsters get into the sport im going to be visiting schools with him and encouraging children to do skating hopefully after successfully qualifying for the euros and again winning gold at the British championships I can be example of what can be done with a little effort hopefully encouraging kids to take up skating I cant do this at London skaters the clubs based on adults and there’s no chance for beginners or kids to join in we don’t have the funds or members of London skaters but hopefully we can become a starting point for kids to become skaters I would like to say a big thanks to Gill for all her help while I was at London skaters and massive thanks to hans an riz also shout out to peterc who’s goatee/style beard scared me in to skating quicker.

'Tis good to help get youngsters in to the sport.
It's a shame it's not easy for us to gear up to do it.

That said, you are still skating so we get to see you racing and we won't stop cheering you on. (We didn't stop for Matt, Tanya or any others)

Best of luck Maryio,

You may have changed clubs, but there is no reason that you can't come and train with LSST occassionally; you're likely to be a better skater for it.
