Twin Cities Junior Roller Derby_5897

Cyclone Celia - Your lead jammer.
From the Friends and Family Scrimmage held at Juvie Hall on February 13th.

It was a great day for derby. The skaters were jazzed because their parents and a few friends were there to see them do a full-length scrimmage, the referees and coaches were awesome (thank you so much) and the light was amazing.

I did something I swear I'd never do. I overshot the event. I shot over 500 shots in the two hours we were there. How? I have no idea and even worse (from my standpoint) I posted over 400 on Flickr.

Why? Because the kids were so damn cute AND the kids build their confidence when they see they are doing something on the track that emulates their idols. That and bragging rights for parents.

Congratulations TCJRD for a fantastic event. I'm honoured to be a part of such a fun organization.

Upcoming events for TCJRD: March 27th - The first bout, June 24-26 - JuniorCon both at Juvie Hall
Cheers!
