Love for Roller Derby
This sport is NOT for the light-hearted.
You must have courage, unbreakable spirit and determination to want more from yourself & your teammates!
Roller Derby is a contact sport while learning strategy & tactics.
Practice is the KEY to the success for each player.
I player Roller Derby for 8 years and my derby name was Over-EZ #14
The greatest memories were when I played for Killamazoo Derby Darlins!
