ROLLER DERBY IS BACK!

We are recruiting new and returning skaters to our San Diego roller derby programs.  Want to train to become a roller derby player?  No experience necessary. We’ll teach you everything you need to know to become a competitive player with our roller derby teams.  Attend our next no-cost informational orientation and see a derby scrimmage in-person and find more about the Derby United programs.

Roller Derby Inquiry Form:

 

Derby United is proud to be the only dedicated San Diego roller derby facility and we are proud to offer multiple leagues on both the banked and flat track:  RDCL (all banked competitive), WTFDA (SoCal Derby women’s flat competitive), MRDA (Aftershocks open gender flat competitive) and JRDA (Tremors youth flat competitive)

Roller Derby practices are currently open to all skaters of all genders, age 13 and over for most programs.  We are not yet able to offer a youth program below 12 but we do anticipate its return in the near future.

Someone very special to use just had a very big bi Someone very special to use just had a very big birthday!  This is Carolee, an instructor here at Derby United who we love and cherish. 

Carolee is a San Diego treasure.  She has taught more first time skaters how to build their skills and confidence than most people who will ever teach. She has spent decades of her life committed to skating and the improvement of others.  Everyone that meets her instantly knows she is someone special.

Happy 70th birthday Carolee.  May those who are half your age but fortunate enough to have an ounce of your health, your energy and your joy for life.  May this trip around the sun be filled with all the love and happiness you deserve.

We love you @carolee_skater 💖
