Suburbia Roller Derby is having tryouts for our newest batch of Fresh Meat and Referees.
Wednesday, June 1, 2011
Murray’s Skating Center,
348 Tuckahoe Rd,
Yonkers New York.
Tryouts begin at 7 PM, and you should expect to be there for about two hours.
What you need to know:
First, you must have your own gear. You need quad skates (yup, that’s four in the corner), knee pads, elbow pads, wrist guards, a helmet and a mouthguard. If you don’t have your own gear, we recommend that you get yourself a rookie package at one of the many skate shops online. For example: Derbydiva.com, sincityskates.com, fivestrideskateshop.com, and 808skates.com.
Second, there are minimum skills that we expect from our Fresh Meat. You can find out what they are at http://wftda.com/rules/wftda-minimum-skill-requirements.pdf. This is what we will be judging you on. Know them. Practice them.
Third, we will be holding two boot camps to help you perfect the above skills. They will be held at Murray’s, on May 25th at 7 PM and May 28th at 10AM. Each boot camp will cost $10 to attend. Please, cash only.
If you are interested in coming to tryouts, email us at info@suburbiarollerderby.com be sure to include the following information:
Name:
Boot camp you are interested in attending (if applicable)
Address:
Birth date (you must be 18 years old and up):
We will get back to you with a questionnaire and multiple forms to fill out. You must return these before tryouts. No forms, no skating.
Now, get out there and practice. We can’t wait to see you on the track!
