Ann Arbor Roller Derby is heading to WFTDA North America Northeast Playoffs in Lansing, Michigan and are excited to have a home field advantage for the first time!

In this episode, we hear from A2 skaters “Arnie” (Terminate Her), “Syd” (Sydney Bean”, and “Slam” (Slamlet) as they share their “Whip It” inspired origin stories, their rivalry and friendship with neighboring league Detroit Roller Derby, and the highs and lows of being located in a college town and attracting skaters from the University of Michigan…who then graduate and move away.

This team has champagne fueled goals and RAT energy (better listen to find out what that stands for ;-) ). Let’s get a behind-the-scenes look at one of Michigan’s most resilient teams as they’ve taken on 50% charter turnover, the impact of their new coaching duo, coming back from injuries, and what makes this season’s squad special coming into playoffs.
