Happy Valentine's Day! Show your fave skater a little extra love today and send them a toestop conversation heart to express your feelings 💖

We ❤️ our new hankies!! Be on the lookout for Handker Bandanas’ newest collection (not pictured!) being worn by your favorite mid-Missouri roller derby league 😘

Happy Birthday, OG!!!! She started learning to NSO for the league first before she became our leagues secretary. She also is one to always help at events and has helped sell merch at bouts. She is always willing to help the league out and it is appreciated. 😀

Happy Birthday, Space-N-Vader!!! Fun fact about Vader for when she is not on the track. She loves to travel (both for work and for fun). 2023 was her most-traveled year yet with over 21,000 miles covered. Vader is an up and coming double threat. You can also catch her jamming and blocking on the derby track!

Please join us in wishing a happy birthday to Jack! Jack is one of our recently graduated beginners, and is working hard to become a real force on the track. We can’t wait to see them grow this season. Hope you have a fantastic birthday, Jack!

Rolling into our 18th season strong 🛼 Just crushed our first scrimmage of 2024!

Feeling the burn & loving the progress 💪💪💪 This week Cam McWright tailored an upper body workout for us at Bellevation Sports Performance to help us strengthen muscles used in derby skills like bracing, wall flips, whips, and pushes!

Happy Birthday, Apple Sass! 🍎 Apple Sass is one of our star jammers and she’s just as sassy on the track as her name implies. Whether she’s kicking butt on the track, calling us out for our penalties as a ref, designing (and making!) all of our kickass CMRD merch, or working hard on our S&R committee, we can always count on Sass! 🎉
