Philly Roller Girls
I happened to find this posting from the Roller Girls and figure it’s worth sharing:
The Philly Roller Girls is an all-girl roller derby league that formed in March 2005 with a diverse group of women from Philadelphia and New Jersey. We consist of self-motivated, hard-working athletes of all ages, body types and backgrounds creating an awesome blend of radical, free-thinking chicks. We are a not-for-profit organization and completely DIY (do it yourself), meaning we are a skater-owned and operated league.
The Philly Roller Girls have scheduled an open recruitment meeting for Monday, September 12th at 9pm upstairs at Cosi on 36th and Walnut (140 South 36th Street), Philadelphia. We are currently recruiting for referees and score card girls as well as rollergirls. Keep in mind, you must be female, at least 18 years old and have current health insurance (or we can help you find health insurance coverage) to skate with the Philly Roller Girls. Other information such as our practice times/places, what kind of gear you’ll need, the sport and its rules, etc. will be covered during the open recruitment meeting and open skates for new recruits. In the meantime, interested potential rollergirls should get a pair of skates on and practice, practice, practice. Feel free to contact me with any questions, etc. or simply check out our webpage at www.phillyrollergirls.com.
