Think you’ve got what it takes to play roller derby? Prove it!
Circle City Derby Girls will be holding its next Boot Camp starting on Wednesday, September 7th. During this four week camp, you will learn the basic skills needed to get you started playing full-contact roller derby. Although CCDG is a women-only league, the Boot Camp is open to any person interested in playing roller derby as a skater or an official. (We will help you find a place in the roller derby community.)
Boot Camp will be held on Wednesday nights from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. and Sunday mornings from 10:00 a.m. – noon, September 6th through October 4th. Boot Camp will focus on helping you become proficient with the minimum skills required by the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA). On Wednesday, October 4th, our Coaches will evaluate your skills and make sure you are ready to begin full-contact roller derby safely and confidently.
CCDG does not have try-outs. If you complete the Boot Camp and are proficient with the minimum skills, you will be invited to join the league.
