We have partnered with Protea Sports Club for our skaters. Membership will give you access to the club facilities. There are two spaces at the Sports Club for us to use for skating.
An indoor section that is slightly bigger than the court. This will be open every Sunday (unless specified on our Whatsapp channel), 10am-12pm as well as every Friday evening from 7pm-9pm.
Members have access to all these sessions as well as use of the hall outside of these hours if no other club is using the facilities.
Non-members can pay a R70 drop-in fee for every Friday evening or Sunday morning.
An outdoor section that measures approximately 17m x 34m.
The court will be accessible at all times for our members, unless an event is on.
We have a phased plan which relies on fundraising to repair, work on the court, and add additional facilities. We will be fundraising through donations, sponsorship and events!
The court has been repaired and is skate-able. The surrounding fence has been repaired and a lock system is in place.
Phase 2 & 3 will be worked on simultaneously. Next step: shade cloth.
Great, we love that enthusiasm! See below for FAQs.
We are happy to have you! Please fill out this membership application form to sign up.
Once you are a member you will be issued with a card that looks something like this.
PLEASE KEEP THIS ON YOU AT ALL TIMES. This will allow us to ensure no strangers are on the property and to call your emergency contact if anything goes wrong.
Membership is R1 200 for the year
Annual membership will include administration costs, free entry to all indoor Kwaai Sunday and Friday sessions and priority booking for paid events like workshops or discos.
Your annual fee will cover 1 April 2025 – 31 March 2025.
Some quick maths: 49 Kwaai Sundays (+- 4 a month) 51 Fridays (+- 4 a month), your R1 200 fee divided by 100 sessions = only R12 per session and 200 hours of skating!
Sure, you can contact us.
Kwaai Sundays are indoor skate sessions we host at the Protea Sports Club. These take place every Sunday from 10am-12pm.
When a Sunday is unavailable, our members are notified on our various channels.
These are NOT lessons, they are sessions for you to come and skate how you want. That being said, everyone is always willing to share tips and tricks.
The court is open during regular club hours for Protea Sports Club.
Absolutely! This includes how we use the money and what facilities we can offer. Any input and suggestions are welcome and appreciated from our members on what they’d like to see in the club moving forward. This doesn’t necessarily mean we will do everything suggested, but we will strongly consider and implement the suggestions that are viable and will help the club and its members.
We have a range of workshops, such as jumping and transitions etc. We are also open to hearing what our members would like to learn.
Skaters cannot drop in to skate on the court. This requires membership. However, non-members can drop in to Kwaai Sundays or Fridays for R70 a session and will be able to pay for workshops and discos.
Drop in skaters can confirm ahead of time. They can do this by emailing us at aweh@kobrakwaai.com
This is to ensure the hall isn’t overcrowded and that if we don’t have a session you don’t just show up 🙂
Yes, both quads and inlines are welcome.
No, this space is only for inline and quad skaters at this time. No other wheels will be allowed.
Children can attend drop in sessions.
Please note: children must, at all times, be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
They will need to pay a drop in fee of R70 and you will need to be present. If this is something you will be doing we will need you to sign an indemnity form.
Unfortunately you cannot bring a friend to the court unless they are a member and pay the monthly fee. Non-member friends are welcome to drop in to any other paid event.
Unfortunately not at this time.
The hall will be opened by us and the club for Kwaai Sundays and Fridays. We are currently investigating safe access to the court with either a combination lock or Bluetooth/NFC/app system. The security and access will be developed as we get more funds. Eventually, we hope to have biometric access.
Yes, there is parking outside the hall. Drive into the club and find parking on the gravel. You can also park on the grass outside the court.
Safety is very important to us. We will be implementing additional safety measures during the phases and there is a security guard/caretaker on site 24/7. Every member will be able to contact them when needed. We ask that if you use the court area, you lock the gate behind you and keep your belongings inside the fence.
No. Please make sure to bring water/drinks to stay hydrated while you skate.
Yes, these are standalone events that are free and open to the public with the aim to make skating accessible to everyone from beginners to advanced. These will continue, and will be announced on our socials.
Yes! These will happen every three months to keep your skates in tip top shape.
Please email us at members@kobrakwaai.com and let us know. We will make a plan.
Amazing! Please pop us a mail at funding@kobrakwaai.com for info on how to help. We have sponsorship options and will gladly accept any donations to help better our facilities.
No, we are not. The club side of Kobra Kwaai is part of the Protea Sports Club which is an NPO.
The rest of Kobra Kwaai paid events (e.g. Clean Skate Parties) are also not for profit and payment goes to covering costs of materials, renting of venues, etc.
You will be emailed banking information once you have filled out the forms for membership.
Email us at aweh@kobrakwaai.com and let us know how you’d like to get involved.
