Are you interested in roller derby tryouts, but feel unprepared? Do you want to see what roller derby is all about? Do you enjoy refereeing? Do you simply want to cross roller derby off your bucket list? If so, sign up for our 2020 New Skater Bootcamp, hosted by the skaters of CT Roller Derby!

This bootcamp is an on-skates program providing close training to prepare attendees to join our league or just get fit! Taught by the CT All Stars, you will learn the basic skills of roller derby that will be assessed at our May 28 tryout.

This is the first of two bootcamps that will run before tryouts. If you are interested in refereeing/officiating and do not know how to skate, you are welcome to sign up for the bootcamp.
