About Sydney Rollerskate

Sydney Rollerskate is an independent publication and advocacy platform for Sydney’s roller-skating community. We share useful information for skaters, raise awareness of the sport, and make the case for more safe, accessible places to skate.

Roller skating is part of Sydney’s recreational life, but suitable space can be hard to find. Skaters often practise on streets, shared courts and other surfaces that were not designed for them. That affects safety, limits what people can practise and can make it harder for newcomers to get involved.

Why we’re here

We want roller skating to be considered when Sydney plans its public spaces. That means listening to skaters, documenting what the community needs, and advocating with local councils, government and other decision-makers for better facilities.

A dedicated outdoor roller skate rink is one important goal. Our proposal for an outdoor rink in Sydney sets out the need, the potential benefits and a pathway for assessing suitable sites. Moore Park South is presented as an option, not a settled location. We’re open to other sites and approaches that meet the community’s needs.

What you’ll find here

Sydney Rollerskate brings together practical guides, stories about skating in Sydney, and updates on efforts to improve skating spaces. Whether you’re learning to skate, returning after years away or already part of a local skating group, this site is a place to find information and follow the work.

We also want the people making decisions about recreation and public space to hear directly from skaters. Better facilities start with understanding how people actually skate, where they skate now and what would make participation safer and easier.
