🎒 It's back-to-school week in RVA, so we thought we'd share some pics from our recent incoming class of rookies at RCRD! We're so excited to welcome new skaters (and future refs, NSOs, and volunteers!) to the league. 🥳 🛼 Our Summer/Fall 2025 Cohort started at the beginning of August with the basics - skating, falling, and stopping. Just a couple of weeks later, they've already learned so much, and we're looking forward to supporting them as they gain even more skills and confidence! 🖤💚 And thanks to our amazing rookie coaches and our volunteers for welcoming these skaters and getting them going! ⭐️ If you're interested in joining RCRD and missed this round, keep an eye out for the next Rookie Orientation in Winter/Spring 2026. #rollerderby #rcrd #rollerskate #rivercityrollerderby #rollerderbyrookie #rvaskate #skaterva #rva #804 #wftda #rollerderbyisforeverybody
🛼 It's Skate-a-Thon time! River City Roller Derby is ready to skate the day away to raise money for our upcoming tournament - and YOU can decide how many laps we skate! Here's how it works: 🔗 Check out our donation page linked in our bio! 🖤 Donate for a DESIGNATED skater to do laps (ex. $25 for Sig to do 25 laps) - just confirm with your skater(s) that they are participating. 💚 Donate an amount for a number of laps to be divided among participating skaters (ex. $50 for 50 laps). ❓️ More questions? Ask us here! #fundraiser #rivercityrollerderby #rcrd #rollerskating #skateathon #bythelap

Interested in playing roller derby? Join us for rookie orientation August 3rd and 4th! 🗓️Sunday, August 3rd, 8-10am 🗓️Monday, August 4th, 6-7:30pm 📍Rollerdome, 4902 Williamsburg Rd, Richmond, VA 📝 Please fill out the form under "Rookie Registration" in our bio before orientation! It is not required to attend both orientation sessions, but try to come to both if you’re able. 🪖We have gear and skates available for new skaters to borrow if you need them (just don’t forget socks)! There are no startup costs for orientation. 🛼 If you can’t skate, our fantastic rookie coaches will teach ya! Folks start derby at ALL stages & ages and we’d love to have you regardless of your skill level or age (as long as you are 18 or older). 💦 Wear clothes you can get sweaty in and bring lots of water! Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! 🥊 Don’t worry about throwing hits on day one! We start with skating and safety skills first and foremost. There will be no hitting for a good long while, and certainly not at orientation! 🦓Not every role in the league requires playing the sport. Folks who are interested in becoming referees and non-skating officials are also welcome to join us at orientation! You can be an essential part of our league without ever putting on skates. 🤔Got questions? Check out our "Rookies" highlight for FAQ's!
