“To ni samo šport, to je življenjski slog!”

 Smo čisto prva Roller Derby liga v Sloveniji, ustanovljena septembra 2013.

ŠD TRNOVO nas je vzel pod streho od samega začetka, za kar smo zelo hvaležni.

Kaj je Roller Derby?

Roller derby je ženski kontaktni šport na kotalkah, ki ga sestavljata dve nasprotni ekipi na progi, poteka pa v nasprotni strani ure. Igra je sestavljena iz serij manjših etap (jam-ov), v katerih obe ekipi določita igralko (jammer), ki jim bo prinašala točke s prehitevanjem igralk nasprotne ekipe. Vsaka ekipa poskuša pomagati svoji jammer-ki, hkrati pa ovirati nasprotno - v resnici gre za istočasno igranje napada in obrambe.

Z Roller Derbyjem se v tem trenutku ukvarja okoli 1250 amaterskih lig po vsem svetu (in številke še vedno naraščajo!), skoraj polovica lig pa je že izven ZDA. Od septembra 2013 pa imamo torej tudi prvo ligo v Sloveniji!

Skupaj s sodniki (m/ž) to pomeni zabavno špotno društvo, ki resno dela in se še bolj resno zabava.

Ekipa

Ekipa je sestavljena iz ženskih članic (Dolls) ter moških in ženskih sodnikov (Zebras), obojih na kotalkah. Poleg Zebras so prisotni tudi NSOs (Non-Skating Officials ali ‘Golonogi Uradniki’), ki zaradi različnih razlogov ne uporabljajo kotalk, so pa v mnogih načinih napogrešljivi del ekipe.

Članstvo

Ker Roller Derby vsebuje močen moment ‘DIY’ (do it yourself), vabimo člane, ki so pripravljeni aktivno sodelovati v ligi. To je eden najpomemnejših pogojev, pod katerimi sprejemamo Sveže Meso (fresh meat), takoj za ekipnim duhom, brez ega ter pripravljenostjo na trdo delo.

*Naši trije uradni pogoji so: nad 18 let, veljavno zdravstveno zavarovanje in NIČ drame!
Nekajkrat letno objavimo ‘open call’ za fresh meat, izven tega termina pa posameznikov ne sprejemamo, prav zaradi ekipnega (team building) aspekta naše lige. Redno spremljaj našo FB in spletno stran, da ne zamudiš datumov! Brez skrbi, začnemo od začetka, se pravi ne potrebuješ nobenih izkušenj na kotalkah.

ROLLER DERBY LJUBLJANA

 “It’s not just a sport, it’s a lifestyle!”

 We are the first Roller Derby league in Slovenia, founded in September 2013.

ŠD TRNOVO took us in since our very beginnings, for which we are very grateful.

What is Roller Derby?

Roller derby is an all female contact sport played by two teams of five members roller skating on quad skates in the counter-clockwise direction around a track. Game play consists of a series of short matchups ("jams") in which both teams designate a scoring player (the "jammer") who scores points by lapping members of the opposing team. The teams attempt to assist their own jammer whilst hindering the opposing jammer—in effect, playing both offense and defense simultaneously. Roller derby is played by approximately 1,250 amateur leagues worldwide (and the number is constantly growing!), nearly half of them outside the U.S. And since September 2013 also in Slovenia!

Together with the referees (male and female) this makes for a fun sports league that works hard and plays harder.

The team

The team consists of female skaters (Dolls) and male and female referees (Zebras) who are also using quad skates. Besides the Zebras there are also Non Skating Officials (NSOs) involved. These are the people that, as the name says, do not wear skates for various reasons, but help in many ways and are essential to the team.

Joining

Because Roller Derby has a strong DIY component to it we are searching for members who are willing to actively contribute to our league. In fact, this is one of the main conditions under which the fresh meat can join, right next to lots of team spirit, no ego, and willingness to work hard.

*Our 3 official conditions are: above 18, valid health insurance and NO drama.

We have open calls for fresh meat a couple of times per year. We don’t recruit individuals outside of these dates, because the team building aspect is crucial to our league. Keep track of our website and FB page to be sure you don’t miss them! No worries, we start from scratch, so no prior experience on quads is required!

 If you would like to keep informed by receiving the monthly newsletter, you can write an empty email with “subscribe” in the subject line to Ta e-poštni naslov je zaščiten proti smetenju. Potrebujete Javascript za pogled.. You will be added to the mailinglist, and will get new information such as open calls first hand!
