Mick Swagger of Team Indigenous and coach catches up with two retired players that she used to play with; former Wheels of Justice and Team USA player and owner and coach of Left Turn Coaching Mercy Shammah, and former London Roller Girl All-Star and Team England player, Lorna Stration (aka Cammie), to discuss Life After Roller Derby. The sport can become an all-consuming passion and lifestyle. Many people enjoy the challenge of being fit for Roller Derby with exercising, weight lifting and cross training which means working out every day of the week as well as practicing derby. The phrase: “I can’t, I have derby,” is a badge of excitement and honor when we’re new and soon our social circle becomes our team mates and other players until our life’s path moves away from Roller Derby. As we part company with other players we separate from friends that were a big part of our lives. When you’re still in derby and you watch them leave you hope they will still stay in touch, taking up coaching or officiating or even in the management of the team, or at the least come and watch a game. While some stay involved in the sport others take off in different directions. Mick talks to two women who’s lives have left a big impress on her.

Izzy Taylor is currently number 2 in the British Eventing rankings with 20 horses in training and 12 of them at international level. She is constantly on the road to compete around Europe while juggling being the mother of two - Lucy and Fred. Her spring four star goal of Badminton did not go according plan with early retirement for Perfect Stranger following a personal best dressage under the new system.  She has since been collecting ribbons this season including a win at Floors Castle CIC2* with Monkeying Around, a third and fourth place at Chatsworth CIC3*. Chris caught up with Izzy just after she arrived in Ireland for the Tattersalls event this weekend where she has a few rides before heading to Bramham. Izzy talks about managing her life as a parent and how the eventing community is home from home when her children are able to travel with her. She shares her thoughts on the current state of the sport, how tough it is to find young horses when there are so many riders fishing in the same pond, why owners should be given more consideration and how the sport is making significant changes without the riders being a part of the process.
