If you know someone involved with roller derby, you know we can’t stop talking about how amazing the sport is. We are thrilled to be back on the track again, and we love when new people join. We can’t wait until our New Skater Clinic when we get to meet all new skaters.
If you are on the fence about joining us, we wanted to share with you why some of us joined derby. So we asked our skaters, both veterans, and new skaters: what made you join, and what is your favorite part of derby?
First up is #911, Ziggyzig Ahh!
What made you join roller derby?
I wanted something to help with my mental health and the derby community seemed really welcoming and derby was a physical activity.
What is your favorite part about derby?
The confidence it has given me in myself both physically and emotionally.
