WHAT IS INLINE SPEED SKATING? |
|||
 |
Regardless of age, speed skaters share a determination to race as fast and as far as they can. This youthful enthusiasm is matched by the sport of speed skating, a discipline demanding a blend of quickness, stamina, and strategy. It's fun, exciting, healthful, social, and rewarding. | ||
| USARS (USA Roller Sports) speed skating is a non-contact sport, requiring skaters to display their skills to maneuver cleanly through the pack and into winning position. Skaters are disqualified for pushing, blocking, forcing another racer out of position, or using their arms, legs, or hands in any way that impedes the progress of other competitors. For added safety, skaters are also required to wear approved helmets during competition. |

Speed
skating, like other organized sports, requires skaters to be disciplined
as they train and compete in an effort to attain peak performance.
The benefits, however, go beyond winning. Skaters learn the importance
of teamwork, of being persistent and organized, and of setting and
reaching goals. It builds health, strength, and discipline. Speed
skaters also learn to value good sportsmanship. Although the sport
is at home in a variety of locales, the two basic divisions are
for indoor and outdoor events. Speed Clubs in the our Area Coeur
