Not all hero’s wear capes, but our Skater of the Week, Bi Furious #29 does! Fury is our amazing New Skater Coordinator, who welcomes new recruits with enthusiasm, patience and plenty of derby know-how. Her talented leadership will be on full display at our upcoming bootcamp (pssst… She wants to see YOU there!) It’s so fun to skate with her: Fury’s energy and wit light up the track every time she laces her skates. Our league wouldn’t be nearly as strong without her.

“I took a five year hiatus from derby after the pandemic and decided on a whim to try out for CRG in May 2024. I was super surprised that I passed tryouts and made the team my first time on skates in five years!”
What do you do for fun off the track?
“I love birding and bird photography!”
What would you say to someone who has thought about playing roller derby?
