Ever wanted to be a roller derby skater? Want to know if you have what it takes? Here’s your chance! The Ohio Roller Girls will be hosting a derby clinic for anyone interested in becoming a roller girl. All wannabes must be at least 19 years of age to participate.

 

Come out and meet our current skaters! We’ll go over everything from basic skate form and crossovers to skills you’ll need for playing derby—from stance and balance to starting and stopping to how to fall safely. 

 

Where: United Skates of America, 3362 Refugee Rd, Columbus, OH 43232

When: Wednesday January 25 at United Skates of America from 9:00 PM-11 PM.  We will meet in the lobby, be prepared to sign in and get your gear on in the lobby because we can’t actually enter the rink until 9PM.

Cost: $10 (cash only, small bills preferred)

What should I bring? We would prefer you have your own skates, knee and elbow pads, wrist guards, helmet and mouth guard - but if you don’t, don’t let that stop you! We will have a few sets of gear to lend and rink skates are available. Mouth guardswill be available for $1.  If you have a bike helmet, that will work for the purposes of this clinic.
