Wanna Be A Rollergirl?

Next Tryout Date: Saturday, July 12, 2008 - 8am-10am

Carolina Rollergirls will hold tryouts at the Skate Ranch of Raleigh.

We're looking for girls at least 21 years old that already have a solid basic skating foundation, so if it's been a while, we recommend you strap some wheels to your feet and attend the open skate sessions ($5 rink fee). There is no substitution for time on the rink!

We ask that you let us know you're going to attend tryouts by sending an RSVP, and if you have any questions, just email us at JoinUs@Carolinarollergirls.com. Being a rollergirl is a lot of hard work, but it can be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life!

We highly recommend you attend speed practices through the upcoming weeks to build your strength and endurance.

List of Skills

Each recruit will be asked to complete the skills listed below. Points will be awarded based on skill level. These skills will be covered in Workshops (dates TBD) and can be greatly enhanced by attending the open practices. The schedule is listed in the menu at right.

Other Requirements

For insurance purposes, you will be required to sign a waiver for all workshops and tryouts.
You may download the waiver (pdf), sign, and bring it with you. We will also have a few copies at the rink.

In order to participate in practices, workshops, and tryouts, you are required to wear the following protective gear:

• Pro-Tec knee and elbow pads
• Wristguards
• Helmet

Gear can be purchased at Vertical Urge and, if you're lucky, you might score gear (and possibly skates) at Play it Again Sports. Rental skates will be provided at all events; however, if you are interested in purchasing skates, we recommend:
Sin City Skates, Connie's Skate Place, and Low Price Skates.

Don't forget to RSVP by emailing JoinUs@carolinarollergirls.com if you plan on attending tryouts.

A final note: we take our training VERY seriously. Most skaters are on the rink at least 3 times a week, but commonly more. Potential skaters must be aware that our sport can be life consuming and attendance records are kept and monitored.
