Recently we have held a user forum for clubs and organisations who use Greenbank Sports Academy facilities with a spotlight on fundraising. Many of the organisations who use Greenbank Sports Academy facilities have chosen to raise funding for Greenbank Project. This has included cake sales, match day programme donations or even being the official charity for the club.
Below is a spotlight on one of the clubs that has used Greenbank Sports Academy as their home for a number of years:
Liverpool Roller Birds is the city’s first ever roller derby league! They flew into existence in November 2009, offering skaters of all shapes, sizes and skating abilities, the opportunity to take up roller derby. Their training suits skaters of all abilities and they encourage those who have never skated before to give it a go. All that they ask is that you are ready to learn!
Their teams regularly play at home and away against other leagues. They use GSA on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturdays. They welcome new members from all walks of life and encourage them to learn how to play, have fun and enjoy being part of our Roller Bird family. Next home fixture is Saturday 3rd May 11-4pm.
