You’ve been to our bouts and thought “HEY! I could do that!”
You’ve been looking for a reason to dust off those old skates of yours.
You need some motivation to get off the couch.
You think you have what it takes to be a Cornfed Derby Dame … so come on already!
Muncie’s own Cornfed Derby Dames will be hosting a CLINIC for new skaters and referees on SATURDAY, DECEMBER 8TH, 2012.
The clinic will be held at Gibson Skating Arena from 10:00am – 12:00pm, and will cost $5.00 at the door.
We will focus mainly on basic skating skills and the basic rules of roller derby.
NOTE: You must be 18 years of age or older to attend this clinic. We are a women’s league, so you must be female to be a Cornfed Derby Dame. Referees, however, may be male or female.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
– quad skates
– knee pads
– elbow pads
– wrist guards
– a mouth guard
– a helmet
– water bottle (Even though it’s cold outside, we will be working up a sweat inside. So don’t skimp on your water intake!)
