ABOUT ROLLER DERBY BOOT CAMP

South Side Roller Derby has created the Roller Derby "Boot Camp" program to prepare skaters for the South Side Roller Derby Tryout Day.

Roller Derby Boot Camp is to prepare skaters for South Side Roller Derby Tryout Day. Roller Derby Boot Camp is held on Monday nights 8-9pm. The cost is $10 a class or $35 a month. This includes speed skating, derby-specific drills and exercises, conditioning drills and overall agility. Every skater will receive instruction on each drill from a member of the South Side Roller Derby coaching staff.

Roller Derby Boot Camp is your first step towards becoming a South Side Girl. Our Roller Derby Boot Camp will get your body conditioned and ready for South Side Roller Derby Tryout Day.  Once a month, we will hold tryouts for those who wish to see if they have what it takes to be a part of South Side Roller Derby.
