The Chairman of Thorne Development Partnership Keith Stent started the proceedings by thanking all those involved in delivering the project including the Wyke Gate Road Steering Group and the funders who were:
​
  • Sport England Market
  • Towns Initiative (Countryside Agency / Yorkshire Forward)
  • Thorne-Moorends Town Council
  • Dixon Motors Plc

He also thanked local residents for their co-operation and urged the users of the skatepark to be considerate. Jill Keddie of Sport England presented Thorne Development Partnership with a cheque for £70139.00 after which the skatepark was opened by the Mayor of Thorne Cllr. Norman Walsh, who praised the commitment of the young people who had worked on the steering group and had now formed the B3 SK8 Club.

After the opening ceremony a JAM was held during the afternoon which included demonstrations and public sessions. This is the first concrete skatepark to be constructed in the Doncaster area.
