So you want to be a derby girl? That's great, because we are recruiting fresh meat right now.

"If you can fight, we can teach you to skate. If you can skate, we can teach you to fight"

Requirements for eilgibility include:

• 18 years of age or older
• A desire to skate hard on the rink

There's a trial period where you are required to pay dues, attend practices, meetings, and events, and help out with running the league. After that, you are eligible to take the WFTDA minimum basic skill test. Once you pass, we will register your name on the national roster and you'll be ready to bout with us. Yay!

We love our refs and we need a lot more. Training will be provided.

Responsibilities include:

• Attending bouting practices and games
• Helping out with track setup
• Learning the rules
• Skating while reffing (Quads are preferred, but if you MUST wear fruit boots, we'll try not to giggle too much)
• Only calling fouls on the other team (ha ha)

If you can handle it, you will quickly become an important member of our derby family and we promise to love you forever (except when you send one of us to the penalty box).

If you want to intently observe practices and games and you love math, sign up here. We need stat lovers to log and crunch our numbers so we know how we're doing.

Responsibilities include:

• Attending bouting practices and games
• Learning the rules
• Compiling reliable jamming and blocking statistics for general distribution

We're planning a full season and we need some awesome announcers to rock the mic at our games.

Responsibilities include:

• Attending enough practices to learn all the girls' names and positions
• Studying up on the names of the girls from other teams that we play
• Learning the rules
• Generally being entertaining and calling the game so that the crowd can follow the action.

Do you always say what the sports announcer on TV says 2 seconds before he does? We want you.

Got a great idea for a poster or flier? We always need help in coming up with cool ways to promote our league and our events. If you have mad design skills or a cool digital video camera that you're dying to fill up with derby footage, give us a shout.

We are also always looking for performers to hook us up with talent for halftime at our games and other special fundraisers and charity events. So if you have a rockin band, awesome DJ setup, freakshow talents, or some other performance art skills that you'd like to showcase to the derby crowd, let us know.

No special skills? Not enough free time to come to practices and learn all those pesky rules? We can still use your help with event production jobs like setting up chairs, handing out fliers and posters to promote our events, and about a zillion other things.

Got an idea for something you can do for us that we haven't thought of yet? Drop a line and hook us up!
