07/17/2020 In Press Releases, Talk Derby To Me By Chainsaw

2020 SEASON UPDATE

With the initial spread of the COVID-19 virus, Ohio Roller Derby suspended our season in hopes that our games could safely be delayed to later in the year. At this time, with the safety of our members and fans as our highest priority, we have canceled our 2020 season. Our volunteers will be reaching out to ticket holders and sponsors regarding refund or transfer options. Though we are disappointed that we will not get to share our 15th anniversary together and with our fans, we look forward to the day that we can all safely gather for some roller derby.

Ohio Roller Derby Season Update

As we all do our part to mitigate the potential spread of the COVID-19 virus, and to follow the guidelines set forth by Governor Dewine, Ohio Roller Derby has suspended our season for the time being. Roller derby is a DIY sport, and months of hard work went into preparation for the opener of our 2020 home season. While it is disappointing to suspend our season, we are #InItTogetherOhio.  We are working closely with the Ohio Expo Center to reschedule our events when we are safely able to do so. We will keep you updated on changes to our schedule on our website and social media accounts. If you have already purchased tickets for suspended games, the cost of your ticket can be applied to a future game, donated to the league, or refunded. You will receive an email with details regarding refunds and ticket exchanges from our Ticketing Committee.  We want to thank all of our fans, volunteers, and advertising partners for your patience and continued support during this unprecedented scenario. We look forward to seeing you at the next game!

Ohio Roller Derby 2020 Season Preview

UPDATE 3/13/20: In an effort to do our part to mitigate the potential spread of the COVID-19 virus, and to follow the guidelines set forth by Governor Dewine to cancel or postpone mass gatherings, we have postponed our season opener at the Ohio Expo Center. Read about it here. After an intense interleague schedule culminating in a repeat appearance at the North America East Continental Cup, Ohio Roller Derby prioritized fun, rest, and recovery in late 2019. The league played two themed mixed-level games and then packed the stands for the annual Skatemare Before Christmas exhibition event. In January, skaters returned to strength training and skating fundamentals, ramping up for another season of exciting competition at all levels. Celebrating their fifteenth anniversary this year, Ohio returns to their home track at the Ohio Expo Center from mid-March through the end of June. While last season brought a handful of retirements and an influx of fresh skaters, the 2020 All Stars roster remains largely unchanged from the 2019 postseason. Captained by Amy Spears, Kelsey Khaos, and Vyles, veteran players Betty Me-Owww (formerly Betty T. KayO), Bigg Rigg, Birch Slap, BrussKnuckles, Catch Mikachu, Chainsaw, and KloverKill also return. A strong core of experienced crossover
