Derby doubles on opening night skate
by Morinville News Staff
The Sturgeon County Junior Roller Derby Association kicked off their 2015-2016 season with a registration night and opening skate Oct. 7.
Association President Terri-Ann Waschlik said she was pleased with the response at their initial skate. “We’re really happy with the turnout tonight,” she said. “We’ve had quite a few kids show up to try. We’re probably just over double the amount of kids we had last year.”
Waschlik went on to say if everyone who tried out Oct. 7 signs up, the association will have enough for two full teams this year.
The association was pleased to see a number of boys try out at the open house registration night. The group is open to boys and girls. Practices are Wednesdays from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Morinville Public School.
For more information call 780-995-5389 or email Sturgeon.County.jrda@gmail.com. The group also has a Facebook page.
