Gear
All skaters must wear the following protective equipment at every practice and game:

- Knee pads
- Elbow pads
- Wrist guards
- Mouthguard
- Quad roller skates
Full gear is required upon registration into the league. We highly recommend using our rental skates rather than purchasing any under $100, as our skates offer smoother rolling and better performance than most in that price range.
Gear can also be purchased at Fritzy’s Roller Skate Shop with 13% off your entire order. Fritzy’s offers free shipping on orders over $50, as well as convenient in-store pickup options.
Levels of Play
Fundamentals Of Derby A focused class for newer or returning skaters to fine-tune the skills required to be a safe and effective derby player. We emphasize core strength, body positioning, transitions, stops, skating in tight spaces, quick movements, and building confident muscle memory for gameplay scenarios. Prerequisites: Completion of Skate Academy Level 3 OR Approval based on prior experience (case-by-case review)
Starbursts- ages 10 and Under
Depending on participation, we may form in-house teams, explore regional travel, and schedule fun scrimmages to introduce younger skaters to the sport.
Shooting Stars - ages 10-17
For skaters ages 10 and up working toward full contact and advanced gameplay. Focused on gaining experience through scrimmages and regional competition. Will play regionally in Southern California and may travel as far as Arizona.

Drop Off Policy
Parents are welcome to drop off their child for practice as long as they:
Pick up their child inside the building at the end of practice, or arrange for a designated coach/parent to escort their child out.
At this time, drop-offs are not allowed for practices or events that begin after 5:00pm.
Skaters can earn a Good Conduct Token (awarded for positive behavior and responsibility) to redeem for permission to attend a public skating session without a chaperone.
