Are There Any Restrictions?

The only restriction is that you do have to be over the age of 18. If you are interested in lacing up a pair of skates and jumping into the world of roller derby, then grab a mouth guard, and make plans to attend the meet and greet with current skaters. The meet & greet is happening January 3, 2023, beginning at 6:30 pm at Skateworld in Evansville located at 1300 Fairfield Drive on the city's east side.

More About Roller Derby

Two teams of 15 - that's 120 skate wheels by the way - compete on the track for each jam. That's what you call a round or session in Roller Derby. Each team has a Jammer. You can spot them by the large star on their helmet. To score a point, the Jammer has to lap members of the other team and it can get intense as they try to make their way through the other skaters. Roller Derby is a full-contact sport and sometimes things can get pretty brutal. If you've never been to a Roller Derby bout, the intensity of the skaters is like nothing you've ever seen.
