What about derby caught your attention? When did you first start playing?
During the pandemic, I saw a lot of people skating as a solo activity and found myself buying a pair of skates. I started skating around the neighborhood and wanting to go faster. I looked up ways to learn how to skate locally and found out about roller derby. I put it off for a while until I met Galgo at a random craft market. She said that VCDD was having an info night the next day. I missed it because I got sick but emailed Heiden, got the packet, and came with my skates ready to go on the first day. I started playing later that year with my first bout in October? 2024 after passing freshmeat.
