What do you think about women playing Roller Derby / Roller Ball?
I want to play but the only 2 teams in CA are too far away. Any women live in Santa Barbara County want to make a team?

1. Roller Derby has been a big hit here in Austin.
I dig it! Lots of other people do as well. Good times for all.

2. Of all the games and sports one could play,
this is the one I want to do. I am a great skater and think my "style" would complement a team. I have read about other teams and how the game is played. I'd like to give it a try.

Thanks for your reply. :hi:

4. More power to you. I hope you follow your dream.
Here's a link to the league that's based here in the Austin area.

The whole concept is fan friendly, fun, and definitely popular here.

I'd say you gotta follow your instincts and look to get involved somewhere. You sound like you've got the passion and the skills. Go for it!

:hi:

3. I watched it when I was a kid and I could never figure out what was
going on other than people were bruising themselves up a lot and fighting. It would be interesting to watch it again as an adult
