LA Derby Dolls Bring Roller Derby Action to LA Pride

Guess who’s an official community partner of LA Pride 2022! That’s right, the LA Derby Dolls! After several years without public bouts due to COVID, we are thrilled to once again bring banked track roller derby out into the community with two outdoor pop-up bouts! And we are especially proud to hold these bouts in celebration and support of the LGBTQIA+ community.

 

We’ll be showcasing our adult skaters as well as our Jr skaters, ages 7-17. Juniors teams Vengeance and Bones will go head-to-head on Saturday June 11th at 5pm while adult Expo teams Cereal Killers and The Dairy Queens, will battle it out on Sunday June 12th at 3pm, not long after the Hollywood Pride parade ends. 

 

In addition to the bouts, there will be a class open to roller skaters who have their own safety equipment and roller skates. The focus of the class will be on the basics of skating a banked track with time for free skate at people’s own pace. 

 

Tickets for these events can be purchased at https://bit.ly/3Q0X5p0.

 

Can’t wait to see you there!
