Question 5

What does it cost to join Sunshine City Roller Derby?

Accepted Answer

Skaters pay $30 per month in league dues, which help cover practice space and other league costs. However, we offer ways to reduce dues by volunteering on league committees, such as: Promotions – Help spread the word about Sunshine City Roller Derby! Bout Production – Assist with planning and running game days. Events & Socials – Organize community events and team activities. Training – Help new skaters learn and grow. Officials and volunteers participate for free—no dues required! Whether you’re skating or supporting behind the scenes, there’s a place for you in our derby family.
