Training

roller derby wakefield training

Roller Derby is a fast-paced, full contact sport so during training you can expect to practice fall techniques and strength training so that you don’t injure yourself or each other, as well as endurance training and drills to improve your skating techniques.

All skate and fitness levels are welcome as full training will be given to get you bout ready. Many of our members had never skated before joining us, and the whole team is involved in training basic skills and upwards.

Beginners train in separate sessions to the main team so they can focus on basic skate skills before moving on to contact. We also have beginners packs for all new starters to keep track of their training and progress.
