BMX Jam in the Park 2015

As part of National Bike Week 2015 which is funded by the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport; Waterford City Council, in conjunction with Waterford Sports Partnership, held a BMX ‘Jam in the Park’. This event was open to young people of various ages which gave them the opportunity to showcase their skills to a panel of judges. Such was the success of the last years Scooter section that we included it again this year.

A total of 38 young people entered both the Scooter and BMX Jam. The Jam was divided into two categories; Beginner & Advanced. Each rider performed in groups of three, for three minutes. Prizes were awarded for most skillful trick, best attempted trick & most stylist trick. The judges were astounded by the high level of skill the young local boys exhibited. A big thank you to Liam from Spokes Cycles who ran the event very efficiently and thanks also to the Civil Defence and Community Gardai, who ensured the event ran in a safe, enjoyable manner.

Roll on the 'Jam’ in 2016!
