On Learning
The Tuesday following our March 27th debut against San Diego and Circle City, we arrived at the Cincinnati Gardens hungry for derby and eager for a team reboot. Scrimmage all you want, but there’s nothing quite like full-tilt, “real thing” competition to identify what you like and what you loathe about your personal game.

Game Day Tips
We get lots of questions from fans about what to expect at Cincinnati Rollergirls games. Here are some tips for how to have a great time when you go to see your favorite roller derby team.
The Unforeseen Benefits…
...of Being a Rollergirl - In August of 2009, I moved from Grand Rapids, Michigan to Cincinnati for a good job and a new start with my husband and children. As a mother and as a professional, I am driven to be the best. However, it has always been evident to me that the energy devoted to work and children is poured out faster than it can be replenished. So, in a new city, friendless and worn out from being the best for others, I decided to do something for myself.
Scout Night Holds a Special Place
May 8th, Scout Night, holds a special place for me. In my youth I was a Boy Scout. It may be hard to believe, but Scouting has a weird connection with roller derby.
Roller Derby: Scouting Project 3.0
Most women can count the number of years they were a Girl Scout on one hand. I, however, have to take off one of my shoes. I joined the Brownies when I was in the first grade and didn't leave scouting until I graduated high school. Why did I stay with the Girl Scouts for so long?
