You don’t need any previous experience in roller skating or sports. We’ll start from the very basics and help you develop your skills at your own pace.
We want to provide everyone a safer and discrimination-free space to train, play, volunteer and enjoy the sport. We don’t approve discrimination based on a person’s gender, sexuality, age, ethnicity, neurotype, disability, body or any other part of their identity. All participants must agree to and behave according to our values.
You can ask for more info from our beginners’ department: beginners@dirtyriverrollerderby.com. You can also send us a message on our Instagram or Facebook.
You’re warmly welcome to our beginners’ practices and to our community!
