HONG KONG SAR –\u00a0Media OutReach<\/a>\u00a0– 5 June 2021 – Organised by Youth
\nSquare for the first time, the ten-day ‘Let’s Glow Skate!’ exhibition and
\nworkshops have been successfully concluded in May, which brings skateboarding
\nto the public from street to Youth Square and promotes this healthy and
\nprofessional sport. The event has aroused public interest and successfully
\nattracted over a thousand participants to join.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

To provide a more comprehensive understanding
\nof skateboarding to participants, different exhibition areas have been set at Y Studio which helped public
\nto learn more about skateboard from the easy to the difficult. Some skateboards featuring
\nHong Kong elements
\nwere also displayed
\nto enrich public
\nknowledge of skateboarding. Youth Square has also invited
\nprofessional coaches, Walking
\nChen and J Lin, to host the skateboarding workshops and share the
\nfun with youngsters in full gear. Participants were able to enjoy the fun of
\nskateboarding through learning basic skills for free!<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I am so happy to see many people joined this
\nworkshop! I am impressed by a pair of young people that they came all the way
\nfrom Tin Shui Wai to Youth Square at Chai Wan for participating in the workshop!” said J Lin, one of the
\nskateboarding coaches. Many participants also expressed how excited they were
\nafter the workshop. “We are very grateful that Youth Square has provided an
\nindoor venue for us to join a skateboarding workshop for free, it is indeed
\nquite expensive to join a skateboarding class. I fall in love with
\nskateboarding after this trial, I will get a skateboard to practise more in the
\nfuture!” said Mr Leung, one of the workshop participants.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

In addition, Youth Square has invited Luk
\nChun Yin (“Chun”), a local skateboarding athlete, together with Walking Chen
\nand J Lin, the workshop coaches, to perform impressive skateboarding skills at Y Platform. “We are thankful that Youth Square has offered
\na well-equipped venue for us to promote skateboarding. Now it has become one of
\nthe sports in the Olympics, I believe more people will stop stereotyping this
\nsport. I am expecting to have more people to join this healthy and fun sport!”
\nsaid Chun.<\/p>\n

Youth Square has been providing a relaxed, reliable and safe environment for
\nyouth to explore every possibility of their potential. This first ‘Let’s Glow
\nSkate!’ skateboarding event was curated and organised by trainees of ‘YS Career
\nExperience Programme’, a 6-month on-the-job training programme providing them
\nwith a chance to organise an event in addition to their normal duties. We are
\nlooking forward to organising more fun and healthy activities to grow with the
\nyouth in future!<\/p>\n
