The Estevan Junior Coaler Rollers season is getting underway.

The roller derby program’s season began Feb. 6, and a recruiting session was held Feb. 9 at the Trinity Lutheran Church gymnasium. Another recruiting night will happen Feb. 13 at 5:30 p.m., also at Trinity Lutheran.

The sessions are for girls in Grades 4-12.

If any parents would like to put on skates and try out as well, the club will have equipment available in the right size. They are always looking for people to volunteer for serving as a referee and helping out with non-skating official roles during games.

For games this year, the Level 3 group will be travelling to Medicine Hat, Alta., for a tournament on March 21 and Regina for a tournament April 25. They will also be hosting a home tournament again this year at the Bienfait Memorial Arena on the weekend of May 23.

This will be an opportunity for area residents to watch some great roller derby from teams around Saskatchewan.

The Coaler Rollers also hope to schedule more games with other leagues for the Level 1 and 2 groups since games for these two groups do not get scheduled as often as Level 3.
