I must endure!
It makes me sad when I hear women say “I would love to try roller derby, but I can’t even skate in a straight line,” or “That looks like so much fun, but I couldn’t do it, I’m not athletic.”
The great thing about roller derby is that women of all sizes and skill levels can join a team and learn! There are some girls on my team, the Rollergirls of Southern Indiana, that couldn’t even stand up on their skates when they first started and they are some of our best skaters now.
I started skating with the league on April 13. I have to admit, I thought I would roll onto the rink and already be pretty good. I skated as a kid, so I figured I’d still have that raw ability.
Wrong!
