Recruit Night

December 2 @ 7:30 pm 8:30 pm

📣WE ARE RECRUITING!!!📣

Roll into the new year with PPRD!  Join our roller derby family and resolve to make 2025 a year of empowerment, fitness, friendship, and fun.

Attend our recruit night to learn how to join PPRD as a skater, referee, or non-skating official.

New to skating? No problem! We’ll tell you all about our Ascenders Program where we work with you to learn basic derby skills at your own pace. In the Ascenders Program we will show you how to stop, turn around, skate backwards, fall safely, and more.

No gear or skates are needed for this no-commitment, purely informational session. We will review time commitment, cost, gear needs, and answer any questions you might have. Stick around after the info session to watch our team scrimmage.

Ready to roll? We have limited gear available to lend out for a small fee.

Bleating Heart Night: Pikes Peak Roller Derby

06/06/2023 @ 5:00 pm 9:00 pm

 

Join PPRD at Goat Patch Brewery on June 6th for Bleating Heart Night!

A little about Bleating Heart Night:

“At GPB, we love pairing good beer with a good cause. That’s why we are
thrilled to host “Bleating Heart Nights” here in the Taproom on
Tuesday evenings.

Where did we come up with the name Bleating Heart? Well, the sound a goat
makes is called a “bleat” and a philanthropic goat is clearly called
a “bleating heart”.

By joining us on a Bleating Heart Night, every pint you purchase between 5 –
9 will result in a $1 donation to the featured non-profit.”

Support for Kristen Parker (#13) and Her Family

Kristen Parker, or Parker to those of us in her Derby Family, was involved in a serious car accident on February 9, 2023. She sustained major injuries and faces a long road to recovery. Parker is such a fighter and an amazing person to be around. She inspires every person she comes in contact with and is an invaluable member of our league and derby family. While she’s recovering, she and her family could really use your support.

Not much is known yet about what her recovery will look like, but doctors are being positive. Right now, the important thing is taking as much concern off of her family as possible so they can be with her and each other. This GoFundMe is meant to help with everyday living expenses such as mortgage payments, food, gas to and from the hospital, and anything else they need right now.

Please join us in helping our derby sister and her loved ones during this difficult time.
