As part of the winter recruitment wave, the Paris RollerGirls open the doors of their gym for you to have a look at what Derby is and experience what it feels like to sit in the suicide zone around the track.

In-between the two workshops to prepare for the entrance test, you can go and witness the Monday evening 3-hour training in St. Denis, just like in last september when it went like THAT.

Paris RollerGirls Open Practice on TV

On Monday Sept. 12th, we organized an Open Practice in our "new" gym at Saint Denis, in the suburb of Paris.

I put "new" in brackets because in reality it's an old municipal gym, mainly used by the school next door, and by the local skating club during the evenings of the week. We managed to get a time slot on Monday evenings thanks to a partnership with the SDUS skating club.

This open evening was also our first official practice after the summer break. We were expecting more visitors, but it was for the best as the gym is quite small: it was crowded and sometimes the fright was worth the coming... wheels and plates were flying close! Haha.

The TV showed up and we had a nice report on CANAL+ a couple of days after. They made a cute edit, mixing footages of drills and scrimmages as well as interviews.
TF1, another national channel, came to get their bearings for an upcoming show... More information soon I hope!
