2010 Mid-Season Placements
This hot summer season brings along with it some hot and exciting advancements with GRRG team placements. We have many of our seasoned, veteran skaters returning to play with some spicy new skaters. With this blend of experience and energy, the league will be tougher and more resilient than ever!
Expect to see many of your favorite All Star faces returning, such as Bette Mangler, Lindsey Blowhan, Shutter Speed, Garden Ho, Trashy Two Lips, Rue DeDaye, and Hodi Chit. Plus the All Stars are ecstatic to welcome X-Libris to this already stellar lineup. These skaters are determined and skilled, armed with a dangerous arsenal of speed, strength and strategy. Opposing teams should consider themselves warned!
The G-Rap Attack! is pleased to welcome back Curvy Dog, Costa Lotta Chaos, Greedy Reedy, Kelsey Slammer, Brassy Knux and Daisy Hatchett. And to round out the core line up they have added new faces, FreakʼN C, Twinner and Maddy, while Ella Vation and Roni U. Over are right on their tails. Equally as determined as our travel team, these Attack skaters are eager to skate, hungry to play and out for blood to win. The dedication and hard work of both teams should prove for a high octane season of amazing derby action. You wonʼt want to miss it!
Not seeing your favorite GRRG roller girl on the roster? Not to worry, itʼs been a very busy summer plus we have a few skaters taking this time to mend so they can return in the fall at full strength for 100 % GRRG derby excitement. Check again after our next wave of evaluations taking place July 28th.
And if youʼre interested in becoming a derby girl yourself, your next chance for recruitment is almost here. The next Basic Training Clinic starts on Sunday, July 11th at 11:00 am. For more information on this clinic, just send an email to contact@gr-rollergirls.com to let us know you’re interested.
