The Ottawa Pacers Masters group skaters are of all levels - beginners through advanced. A couple of our members have skated since they were kids, but most took up speedskating during their 30s, 40s or 50s. The group includes both Senior (18-29 years old) and Master (30+ years old) skaters. Currently our members range from 20 to 60+ years of age. Our members skate for many different reasons - fun, fitness, racing and anything in between. This is a sociable group, and you'll often find participants meeting for a beverage following practice. How to Get Started Why not start with our 4-week trial speed skate program! This program has been designed to teach you the basics and to give you a taste of speedskating. If you like it, you can join the club. You will need some safety equipment, which will be available for rent/purchase. Skate rental for the trial program is included in the trial fee; members can rent skates from the club for the season.
