Derbyversaire 2 "Freaky Derby Day"

Yesterday -- Sunday, March 4th was the official celebration day for the second derbyversaire of the Paris RollerGirls. This year because of the lack of sports facilities for skaters in Paris, the PRG couldn't take the risk to organize a bootcamp. However, an event was organized on the fly when we learnt a couple of weeks ago that we could book the hall where we usually play our games in Paris.

The actual derbyversary date of the Paris RollerGirls is on the 14th of February... Saint Valentine day. No use to wonder why Paris Brings the Passion: it was Cupid's birthday gift!

"Paris Brings the Passion!"

This is the slogan of the League. Don't ask me how they came to this, I'm sad enough not to have been there when it happened -- I was giving a slalom workshop the whole weekend...

But here it is, and Man it rules!

 

EDIT: Ok so now I learnt how it came from... Amelia went to a bootcamp in Germany and described us as very tactile, always hugging and kissing each other, caring when one of us falls or takes a hit... which kind of stroke her at first. And she concluded her description with "Paris brings the passion".
