May spotlight

I love Halloween and all things spooky ... and I wanted the longest derby name I could find.

Pivot. I love the flexibility of the role and being able to bail out my Jammer when they need help
I was going through a bit of a rough patch in life and remembered seeing a team advertising online. I sent off an email to join and never looked back.

Stop thinking about it and do it! You won't regret it.
The hardest part for me was getting out of the house and into an unfamiliar environment. I didn't know how to skate and was afraid I'd be the only beginner. It was also intimidating going in alone and not knowing anyone. On my first day I made a few friends, found out lots of my peers didn't have any skating experience, and realized it's hard to think about your life problems while you're fighting for your life on roller skates. Now, 13 years later this sport is still challenging me every time I gear up and I wouldn't want it any other way.
Skate skills can be learned, the hard part is putting yourself out there and trying something new. You can absolutely do this!
The community we've built here. Hogtown is full of the most supportive, fun, and talented folks around. I know I can always count on this community to have my back and be my biggest cheerleaders on and off the track.
