WITH reference to the letter from Mr Blight, I have watched the Crown Court skateboarders with fascination. There is neither a referee nor an umpire but the assembled boarders practice their sport without upset.
Each waits his turn to improve his own skills and applauds others for their achievements. There is a distinct absence of:
6 The foul-mouthed aggression that is associated with football.
6The alcohol consumption that is associated with rugby.
6 The elitism that is associated with cricket.
It is a pleasure to witness this multi-cultural group of youngsters who hail from all walks of life.
Not only are they taking exercise and socialising on a level that would put some adults to shame they are, above all, having fun.
