“Bring your favorite folding chair and snacks and you can pick your spot closer to the track,” Media Director Ellianna “Foxxxy Blocksy Brown” Jameson said.
WTR is devoted to the hard-hitting world of women’s flat-track roller derby and is a full member league of the Women’s Flat Track Derby Association. The league currently consists of one local home team, in addition to the WFTDA charter travel team, the Whine Makers. The organization is also now offering youth flat-track roller derby as an affordable sport option for boys and girls ages 6-17.
“Rampage Junior Derby, Temecula Valley’s only youth roller derby team, is celebrating their inaugural season and looking for new skaters,” Jameson added. “Zero experience is required.”
Rampage’s regular practice schedule is 6 to 8:30 p.m. on Wednesdays and Fridays at Ronald Reagan Sports Park in Temecula.
