– Montreal roller Derby
Starting Tuesday August 10th, MTLRD will be holding their annual bootcamp. Camp is twice a week, on Tuesdays and Sundays, from August 10 to November 2.
All practices will be at Le Taz (8931 avenue Papineau,Montréal,Québec,H2M 0A5). Tuesday night practices run from 7pm to 9:30pm, and Sunday practices run from 6pm to 9pm.
You NEED to complete the entire Boot Camp process first in order to be considered part of our league, and an official member of the Smash Squad. The Smash Squad is a group of recruts who practices with the league and will be elligible for tryouts.They are not yet on one of our 3 existing home teams. Being on the Smash Squad doesn’t mean you will make it on a team. Our league is advancing so quickly, we need recruits to understand that they need to be serious,dedicated and motivated in becoming athletes.Tryouts are TBA.
We strongly encourage you to start skating NOW . That way we can focus more time on the needed skills than skating skills.
Camp is separated in five levels of skills to work on and a Newbie can NOT move to the next level if she did not pass the previous level.
There will be a tight structure for all the Boot Camps and including set testing dates. It is designed to give enough time for ‘campers’ to learn, but is set at a fast pace so that by the time the league comes back from the off-season on November 2nd, Newbies will be “up to speed” and ready to join league practices.
If a ‘camper’ FAILS a level,she can’t continue to the next level right away. If she fails the same Level TWICE, she is not able to continue with boot camp.
Also Note: Due to the Boot Camps schedule **NO NEW GIRLS CAN JOIN AFTER AUGUST 22nd!** (more info)...

Romeo is a veteran of love, war and Montreal Roller derby. She’s a member of both The New Skids on the Block and Les Filles du Roi, and despite what you might imagine – running into Romeo feels less like romance and more like a brick wall.
Q: How long have you been involved with the sport?
It would now be my third year as of now, and still going!
Q: What is your favorite aspect of roller derby?
The physical brutality of it, and the real competitiveness between teams and between players. As the years go by, it makes me want to become better and better as a skater and as a person in this screwed up planet. What makes everything stick together most of all, is the significant friendships I’ve developed along the way (as well as my undying love for Smack Daddy).
You’ve seen her, pacing the floor near the purple and gold bench, patiently holding onto a clip board crammed with top secret plans – it’s Mama San, and she’s Les Filles du Roi’s Bench Manager. And let me tell you – that’s not an easy task – those ladies are wild on and off the track. Mama San is just the person they need to focus on the game and keep everyone cool and confident for the next jam.
