We’re safely back in action!!
The health and safety of our league and our community are our top priority. Our amazing coach has been tracking the tiers (see her blog post for more info) and crunching Covid numbers for San Mateo county and the counties our league members live and work in, to carefully plan for our safe practices and bouts. #wootwoot
Reliable information about COVID-19 can be found on the CDC’s website and on the California Department of Public Health. PRD encourages everyone to continue to practice all of your self care routines, safely.
We will continue to move forward in a safe manner and follow recommended guidelines. We honor each of our league members and support their comfort levels with attending practices or waiting it out, distancing, and masking. We are vaccinated, boosted, and safety is paramount.
Please to follow us on Instagram and Facebook for pictures, videos, our pets, skate events, and other fun shenanigans - TikTok account coming soon! If you’re curious about roller derby but aren’t sure about what role you’d participate, contact us! Send an email to recruiting@peninsularollerderby.com and we can arrange to have you sit in on a practice or scrimmage to see what it’s all about.
Diversity and Inclusion
Peninsula Roller Derby strives to be an inclusive and safe community for all. We welcome everyone and want to have an atmosphere where they can learn to play roller derby, regardless of socio-economics, gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, language, culture, abilities, and other social differences that make each of us unique. We do not tolerate bullying. We embrace diversity! You have our full commitment to improving and building the league’s diversity and inclusion.
To read the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) message on diversity and inclusion within the association, please check out this link. You will find this statement on the “About Us” page as well. It’s important that everyone knows how we feel about this.
Land acknowledgement
Peninsula Roller Derby acknowledges the original custodians of this land we live, work, and play on. We pay our respects to the Ramaytush and Muwekma Ohlone Native American Tribes, past, present, and future. PRD voluntarily pays a land tax to recognize our access to stolen Indigenous land. Please join us and donate: www.ramaytush.org/donate
