Third time’s a charm!
The Hudson Valley Horrors are gearing up for our third installment of the Frightmares Junior Roller Derby Boot Camp! We are calling young ladies between the ages of 12 and 17 to join in on the fun.
We welcome girls of all shapes and sizes to come out and join in the grass-roots derby revival that has become a global phenomenon! Roller Derby promotes a positive body image and encourages confidence! This is a great way of getting your girls out from in front of the television or computer, and down with doing some physical activities, all while having fun!
Our coaches are certified through the Youth Sports Institute of New York. Skaters will learn the basic rules of roller derby, as well as activities outside of the roller rink which will help to develop the “derby muscles” needed to improve performance on the track!
So come on out and get rolling!!’
Date(s): Tuesdays, March 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd, 29th and April 5th
Time: 6:30-8:30 pm

Would you like to be part of the world’s fastest growing sport? Tryout for Roller Derby!
The Hudson Valley Horrors are now recruiting for the 2011 season and we want YOU!
This is not Roller Derby from the 1970’s! No staged fights or obstacle courses. The Horrors skate under WFTDA (Women’s Flat Track Derby Association) which has streamlined Roller Derby into becoming a legitimate sport. “WFTDA promotes and fosters the sport of women’s flat track derby by facilitating the development of athletic ability and sportswomanship.”
Athleticism is encouraged and nurtured, and we are looking for women who are looking to be part of a team!
Maybe you want to shed some unwanted pounds and get toned. Or you want to meet new people. Or you are looking to let out some aggression while participating in an organized sport. Roller Derby does all of that! So grab a friend and come try out!
We are also looking for Referees and non-skating individuals to volunteer (male and female).
Although no experience is necessary, it is helpful. You must be 18 or older to tryout. Learn more about being a Horror from our website or if you know a Horror, ask her!

Date: February 21 and 24
Time: 7:30 to 10:00pm
