Skates will be available for rent only when we host the workshops at a skating rink.  Rental skates are not appropriate for roller derby and it is recommended that you bring your own skates. We strongly recommend getting skates appropriate for roller derby such as Bonts, Reidel, Sure Grip, etc.  You can find used skates on eBay, Facebook Marketplace, and other online sellers.  Roller derby skates have a flat heel.  You are welcome to use whatever skates are available to you but you will be more successful in the workshop with a flat heel.   Please send all gear questions to recruitment@peachstaterollerderby.com

We also ask that you express genuine interest in joining the team and committing to the sport of roller derby and PSRD. 

Please send any questions to recruitment@peachstaterollerderby.com

Discounted shirts and tanks will be available for purchase.  You must attend the workshop to get the discount.
