Skateboarding in Communities

As skateboarding has recently made it’s debut in the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, it has solidifed it’s place in sports and recereation programs across the country. The New England Skateboarding Association has been working with municipalities across New England to incorporate programs, workshops, and camps to make skateboarding accesible to all.

Skateboarding teaches how to ‘fail forward’. Setting and reaching one’s own goals is a natural part of skateboarding, at any ability. Falling and getting up again to acheive those goals, while learning how to mitigate injury embeds life-long lessons on resilience and perserverance. A skateboarder’s mindset is recognized as an asset in life… a truly useful tool for life-long accomplishments.
