Crowds expected at boarding event

Young people are expected to flock to North Lincolnshire for the second day of a skateboarding bonanza.

A variety of skate ramps and tournaments have been set up at the youth centre in Crowle.

The event was created after a public consultation exercise was held by North Lincolnshire Council.

Councillor Harold Osbourne said: "We have listened to what people want and it has become clear skateboarding is popular with young people."

The event would give skateboarders a chance to learn from each other and check out the facilities available to them, he added.
