This week’s Featured Skater is fOWL Play #H00T!
A new addition to CFDD this season, but no stranger to roller derby, fOWL Play brings new life to the jammer rotation. Hard-working, passionate, and positive are just a few words you might use to describe this truly valuable teammate. While a majority of her hard work on the track is dedicated to her jammer skills, she also aspires to be a better blocker. fOWL is always on the move outside in warmer months, mostly hiking. Admittedly, her winter workout involves a lot of lifting… the spoon full of chocolate ice cream to her mouth.
You might wonder how one comes up with such a derby name – “I wanted something aggressive and different because there are so many fantastic names out there in the derby world. I was watching forensic files one night and they said “foul play” repeatedly throughout the show and it just clicked. Coming from a renegade roller derby league to a WFTDA league, I thought it was kind of fitting, also my heritage is Native American and my animal totem is an Owl, so there it is: fOWL Play!”
When fOWL isn’t racking up the points on the track, this proud mom is hanging with her little man, working in accounting, camping, fishing, and enjoying the great outdoors. On bout day, she settles her nerves with the soothing sounds of the 90s!
Come see fOWL (and her mustache-tattooed index finger!) and the rest of the Dames on Sunday, March 29th as we take on the Circle City Socialites from Indianapolis! Tickets are available through Brown Paper Tickets, at the door, or any Dame.
