Derby Diaries! - 18:26 07 Sep 10
The story so far:
I went to my first practice in April and was hooked! The Royal Windsor Roller Girls http://www.windsorrollergirls.com/ are an amazing group of people and made me feel so welcome. I’ve brought equipment over the past few months that I would never have thought of as something I needed for skating- padded pants, gum shield etc!
Played in my first closed door game in August and my first “proper” game, “Space Jam”, as well. The first game was a success, the second game my team (Team Moon) lost to Team Star by about 4 points in a nail biting overtime jam (I’ve never screamed so much in my life). Played in another closed door game last weekend, which was also successful and I’m very, very happy about how it went!
So far I’m loving this more than I can say, but hate missing CSkate things when they clash! Training is hard work and I have never sweated so much in my life (there is a certain essence of derby girl- anyone who wants to know what this is like is welcome to sniff my pads  ). I now have 3 team T-Shirts with my name- CruciVix- and number -31- on them and feel like I belong now!
Watch this space for updates!
