Rocky Mountain Rollergirls are very excited to announce our November skater of the month: Slam Beesly! She has been with the league for two years now, and is quickly becoming a force on the jammer line! Her endless energy is evidenced by her ability to juggle her personal life and her derby career. After all, planning a wedding and making it to practice all the time can be tough!
Beesly is one of the kindest ladies in our league. Her kindness has translated into her committee work, as she helps new skaters transition into the league as a member of our recruiting and development group. But don’t let her sweetness fool you—she will definitely run you over to get through the pack. She has really stepped up her game in the last year, skating with both the Doom’s Daisies and traveling with Project Mayhem.
Recently, she gave the word “selfless” a whole new meaning when she donated a kidney to someone in need, a “giving back” after her mother received a much-needed transplant. Not only did Beesly go under the knife for a stranger, she still managed to show up the night before her surgery to kick butt with Project Mayhem!

For all of these reasons, we are proud to have Beesly as a member of our league, and to honor her as November’s Skater of the Month!

Rocky Mountain Rollergirls would like to recognize and show great appreciation to our latest skater of the month, Chi Chi Chong! Chi Chi celebrated one year with RMRG August 2016 and just recently stepped in to dominate a very busy and demanding position within our Bout Production committee. She has been a huge asset to this committee, recently assisting in a very successful double header at The Fillmore.

In July, Chi Chi was drafted to Dooms Daisies as well as recently having several appearances on the track with Project Mayhem. Off the track Chi Chi has become a very valued league mate, inspiration to new skaters, and friend to many.

Chi Chi is always bringing her A game and attitude to every practice and team function. She has a smile that can light up the room and makes every conversation fun and uplifting. Thank you, Chi Chi, for all of your hard work and dedication to your league and peers.

This month, the Rocky Mountain Rollergirls would like to say a huge THANK YOU to Dave Wood. Dave began his relationship with Rocky as a photographer and quickly became more involved as an official and eventually as the head coach of Fight Club and the travel team as a whole. He is kind, fair, and hilarious. He has dedicated countless hours in training the entire league and other officials. He has shown an unwavering passion for the game and to Rocky Mountain that no one can deny. Most recently this was witnessed when he lead Fight Club to playoffs in Montreal. It was truly apparent how much he loves the team.

Thank you so much for everything you do Dave, we could not ask for a better coach or friend!
