So You Want to be a Roller Warrior... WrecK League is Where You Start
We’d be lying if we told you it’s going to happen over night. Over the years, our league’s average skill level and competitiveness has definitely picked up. What it took to be a roller warrior in 2004 is not what it takes today. KCRW ladies skate 3-5 times a week and on top of that help run the business and promote the sport. The best things in life aren’t just handed to you; they take hard work and perseverance. Derby is no different, you’ve got to want it bad and be willing to work for it.

Now that we have that out of the way, starting April 4, 2011, ladies interested in becoming a Roller Warrior may join our WrecK League. Your derby career starts here.

Step 1: Join Wreck League … Discover if you’re just interested or truly committed to becoming a Roller Warrior.
