4 days after playing her her 2nd tournament as a rostered Team Michigan Skater, #22 Jahrmageddon and I chatted about her 12 year career in roller derby. We also talk bout what it means to be a MI interleague coordinator, how YOU can help MI roller derby thrive, Lansing Junior Roller Derby, and the official/referee shortage.

This week Benjamin "Speed Bump" Doyle of Quad Media and I talk through the "Covid-19 Broadcast Return to Play Guide"  This guide inlcudes ideas and considerations for leveraging video live streaming and recording to re-engage audiences and the derby community after prolonged downtime due to pandemic related shutdowns. 

Speed Bump became a Rose City volunteer in 2006 and wore pretty much all the hats Rose City has available after.  Many of you know him as the video technical director sitting behind the dais at 75% of the WFTDA tournaments over the past decade. In 2019 he took on the role of director of broadcast.

The guides are for planning post-covid/return-to-play - things leagues should be thinking about right now to prepare.

Guide is for every level of derby- small teams, large leagues, tournaments|
