Shere Carnage

My boyfriend was friends with Gorgon and she invited him to Snow Brawl in Jan 2010. We ended up at the afterparty and I guess I got caught up in the whole excitement of the day. A fair few beers later and I found myself agreeing to give it a go. They both held me to my word and I found myself turning up to practice a couple of weeks later. I was so nervous as I’ve never been a sporty person, but I was instantly hooked and have never looked back. My life has definitely changed for the better, from the way I’ve altered my lifestyle to the fact I train off skates as well as on skates; I’m so thankful that derby came into my life. I just love everything about it, the tactics, the teamwork, the thrill of getting up there on the line up and having the jam whistle blow and the fact I’ve made so many new friends who you know are always there for you and will support you no matter what. Oh, and I’m a massive Gotham fan. It wouldn’t be my derby bio if I didn’t get that in there somewhere ;)
