Ann Arbor Roller Derby is a WFTDA roller derby league based in Ann Arbor, MI. We help participants grow into skaters, officials, & people they want to become.
We ask that you join us in wearing teal ribbons and trans pride flags for the rest of the month in solidarity. Please reach out to A2RD or Lakeshore RD if you would like to donate in person.

Last night, we were devastated to learn that we've lost R2-DeckU/Jody. A2RD and Lakeshore RD are collecting funds on behalf of R2's family to cover the celebration of life costs.

R2 was a dedicated pillar of the MI derby community, officiating over 500 games in her career. She routinely went out of her way to support any league she could, and we will miss her dearly.
Ann Arbor Roller Derby stands in solidarity with our borderless skatemates.

PRD and PRDJ are truly saddened today with the loss of Paul Williams. A coach, mentor, board member (many times over), hauler of things, boss and job finder, and most importantly a caring and loving husband and father.
We want to share some community crowdsourced lists of resources for learning more about Palestine and finding ways to help, if you have the resources. Look through this masterlist to find out more on how you can help provide aid to those in Palestine:

Today is June 25th which can only mean, well, a lot of things honestly, and to a lot of different people, but here we would like to wish you all a very happy National Bring Your Dog To Work Day! #A2RDBehindTheScenes#DerbyTwitter#PetCowerkers
It might *technically* be National Bring Your Dog To Work Day, but here at A2RD we know that pets of all shapes, sizes, and species have been keeping us going through the pandemic. We want to take today to celebrate them all!
