Jewish Roller Derby

A roller derby team of Jewish people from around the world!

We’ve been a little dormant for the last few years, but we’re coming back - and we’re having tryouts! https://t.co/tuwg4Wzu3Z #jewishrollerderby #tryouts

We’ve been pretty silent in this account since Champs - really leaning into our offseason. But tonight is the first night of Chanukah, so it seemed like a good time to re-emerge! Happy Chanukah everyone! #Chanukah #thechosenskaters #jewishrollerderby

It's important to listen to the Indigenous folks in your life and on your timeline every day, but especially today, on US Thanksgiving. We're so grateful to our friends at @TeamIndigRD for the work that they do. #wearenation #wearestillhere #thankstaking

But more than remembrance, it is time today to vow to fight for a better world for all of us. Many of us skated this past Saturday with the words "Never Again" written on our bodies. Those words can be applied today as well. #TDOR #TransDayofRemembrance

[Jewish Roller Derby @DerbyJewish]

After a weekend of affirmation for our community, it is time today on #TDOR to honour and remember our trans siblings, and especially the trans women of colour, who have lost their lives this year through acts of transphobia, violence, and discrimination.

AND OF COURSE a HUUUUGE thank you to everyone who watched the game, or shared or donated to our fundraisers. We are so grateful for your support. #derbytwitter #wearenation

After an absolutely incredible weekend, the team is (mostly) all back home (pending some flight delays and extended vacations!) thank you so much to everyone who made this weekend, and the Game Wothout Borders, happen. #derbytwitter #wearenation

And lastly to the @WFTDA and @MTLROLLERDERBY thank you so much for your support, for providing this opportunity to showcase our borderless nation on the largest roller derby stage. This experience has been so important to our team and to the whole Jewish roller derby community.

Team JRD is now congregated to watch our bench coach Blackman skate with @DNVRRollerDerby! #wearenation

Due to the inclusive nature of our We Are Nation game rosters, not all skater names will fit in our penalty graphics on our broadcasts. For more detailed @DerbyJewish and @TeamIndigRD roster information, check out our Sports Information Book here: https://t.co/36aATDEFPu
