So you wanna be a Naptown Roller Girl?

Posted on February 16th, 2009

On Valentine’s Day you saw how fast we trained our summer crop of “fresh meat” when they beat NE Ohio Rock n Rollers. Now you want in on the skating action!

So you wanna be a Naptown Roller Girl?

It’s a tough job, but someone’s gotta do it. It could be you! The Naptown Roller Girls are looking for fresh meat!

Who should come out?
All women 18 years or older; ALL shapes and sizes!

Sunday, Feb 22; 1-3pm
Location: The Secret Lair (E-mail: freshmeat@naptownrollergirls.com for location and more info.)
Please bring: Helmet, wrist guards, mouth guard, knee pads, elbow pads, and quad skates – if you don’t have pads, we might be able to provide them for you. Just e-mail us and ask!

To get your rear in gear for the next round of tryouts, there are few things you can do to put yourself ahead of the pack:
Go to an open skate! Or three … or four! No prior skating experience is required, but you’ll want to get as much skating practice in before tryouts as you can. Here are some things you should aim for:
1. Skating smoothly with long strides
2. Doing cross-overs (one foot crossing over the other) when making a turn
3. Maneuvering around obstacles
4. Being able to make a controlled stop (without running into a wall or falling)

Get logged into our Message Boards: This is a great way to get to know what NRG is all about, find out about events that are coming up, and connect with other girls who are thinking about trying out. Head to naptownrollergirls.com/boards

Sign up for the e-mail newsletter (over on the left side of your screen, near the bottom) and get your family and friends to sign up, too! You’ll want to get them all ready to come out and support you.
