Book Synopsis: Roller derby is an incredible, hard-hitting sport: a cultural phenomenon with a storied past dating back to 1935. Modern roller derby, restarted in Austin, Texas, in 2001, has been one of the fastest-growing sports of the 21st century. The modern punk-inspired DIY amateur athletic movement has spread to almost 2000 leagues all over the globe in less than fifteen years.

With chapters on the history of roller derby, rules and strategy, exercise and nutrition, and the gear you'll need to play, Derby Life will teach you what you need to know to get rolling.
