First Choice Holiday Villages trial new X-Flighters scheme

First Choice has introduced ?X-Flighters? skateboard and scooter lessons for children staying at selected Holiday Village resorts this summer.

The company has added ?X-Flighters? to its activity programmes in Mallorca, Kos, Rhodes and Turkey.

The roll out follows the success of a pilot scheme last summer at the operator's all-inclusive Holiday Village Algarve in Portugal, which proved to be a huge hit with children aged eight years and over (as well as some adults).

With the skateboarding trend already inspiring more and more youngsters to test out thrilling new tricks and skills, ?X-Flighters? is the company?s first urban sports programme aimed at giving families a chance to try something new and exciting during their holiday.

Staff have been given training to broaden their urban sporting skills by one of the UK?s top skateboarding instructors so they can teach children and adults alike to work on their tricks and skills throughout their holiday.

Customers also have the opportunity to take part in three back-to-back sessions whether beginner, intermediate or advanced.
