Micro Bruisers – Session 2
January 12, 2014 @ 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Joining the Micro Bruisers
The Brewcity Micro Bruisers are open to girls between 8-17 years old interested in learning the sport of roller derby and working on skating and derby skills. Although no previous roller derby experience is required to participate, interested skaters should have basic forward skating skills and an athletic drive. Because there are various skill levels in the Micro Bruisers, anyone is able to start as a beginner and work their way up.
- Beginner Level and Level 1 practices have mostly no contact and focus on improving basic skating form, stops and safe falls.
- Level 2 and 3 practices begin to include blocking and jamming drills with contact and work on the strategy of the game. A skills test and written test are required to move up into higher levels to ensure that all skaters are safe and educated about the game.
