We are so excited to announce Gotham’s first clinic of 2025!
Join members of the Gotham Travel Team for an afternoon of jamming, blocking and offensive partnerships. This 3-hour clinic will be led by co-captain of USA Roller Derby (Gotham's very own Yeti) as well as members of Gotham's 5x WFTDA Championship-winning All-Stars (including Violet Knockout). The clinic will be broken up into three sections: one jammer-specific hour (taught by All-Star jammer Goddamn Goddamn), one blocker-specific hour, and one offense hour.
All skill levels (though you must be comfortable with fundamental derby skills and full roller derby contact) and all genders are welcome to join in this full contact clinic.
There are a small number of spaces available if you are interested in participating off-skates. Please email bodegakat@ggrd.nyc for more information.
Date: June 7, 2025
Time: 2pm - 5pm ET
Location: Inman Sports Complex (Edison, NJ)
Cost: $45 (no refunds or transfers)
Insurance: All skaters must have WFTDA or equivalent insurance.
Gear: All skates must wear and provide their own equipment (quad skates, helmet, mouth guard, knee pads, elbow pads, and wrist guards).
